Hi Guys
Total Linux Newbie here.
I've been haunted by Windows 8 issues ... Apples are too expensive ... so I've decided see why life the Penguins is rated so highly.
I like the idea of a Light OS and, fingers crossed, I'll be able to breath some life into some old machines. Hopefully this old Orchardist turned Jam Maker wont annoy everyone all at the same time!
As a small aside, I was reading about Linux and Viruses this morning and really like the reason why Linux machines need Anti-Virus programs ... to make sure any file that is passed on to a Windows based machine is clean! That sort of outward facing logic appeals to me.
Cheers
Tony
