Windows User Experiments With Linux for 10 Days

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the user-gets-a-gnu-perspective dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Clarence Ladson over at Flexbeta decided to kick Windows to the curb for 10 days in an experiment to find out just how hard it would be to 'quit cold turkey' and move entirely to Linux. It's amazing how many day-to-day operations require the inadvertent use of Windows in our daily lives."

    An Operating System should be: functional designed in the best interests of the developers and users free(remember, an OS is only supposed to be the middle man between your applications and your hardware) secure

    An OS should be free? Really? Where did you come up with that wacky idea? I personally think that cars should be free. It doesn't mean it's going to happen. It also doesn't mean that I'm not delusional.
