Re: With M$ Windows dead as a dodo

My children (both under 12) don't seem to have your problems. I've only needed to intervene once in the past 4 years to fix a botched in place upgrade due to one of their machines being unplugged half way through kernel installation. Apt fixed the situation almost on its own through recovery mode the same day.

They use these machines for gaming, homework and other things daily and have been keeping up to date through major versions with no need to reinstall, even when they have major hardware changes.

Your argument is familiar, but applies to far fewer people that it used to. For most Linux can work great right now.
