Do Apple users change more to Linux, than Windows ?
Sometimes when I search for commands, or tutorials, it has the versions for terminal in Linux, and Apple, it gave me the impression the transition may be good but I am not sure.
How was the transition from Apple to Linux for you ?
How did it compare to someone you came across who transitioned from Windows to Linux ?

The Apple users I know don't even think about changing to Windows or Linux. They just spend more money on a Mac without even considering anything else. Too much money and too little thinking.  Wink Some Windows users I know have put Linux on their old computers.

I don't think I am exactly the typical Linux convert. I started using DOS with menus on my first computer to avoid using the terminal before putting Windows 3.1 on it. Back in the dark ages of about 2002 before cable internet, I tried MEPIS (Point & Click Linux) on my own for a little while. Then a guy I met at a Linux Users Group installed Fedora on my computer. I got scared off by updating by phone dial up internet, the Terminal, and Synaptic Package Manager. I gave up and went to XP. Even now Fedora is beyond my comfort level. I should have stuck with MEPIS.  ;D I also tried OS/2 before getting a new computer with Windows 98 moving on to Windows XP. After getting my iMac, I still had to use Windows at work up to Windows XP Pro when I retired. The transition to Linux was not difficult. I still avoid the terminal as much as possible. I just copy and paste commands when I have to use it. I always say if I wanted to use the command line, I would have stayed with DOS. ;D When I moved to Linux permanently, I was use to updates from Apple and had cable internet. The last computer I bought came with Windows 8 with a free upgrade to Windows 10. I wiped it an put Linux Lite on it.
