What was the last version of Windows you used before hopping on over? This includes the Linux greybeards too.

I was on Win10 but moved over as the end of life cycle is drawing near and I do not like Win11 at all.

Another thing for this change was the forced bloody updates, bro I just wanna shut down my PC and go to bed, if I wanna update it, I’ll do it on a Saturday morning with my coffee or something.

Lastly, all the bloat crap they chuck in on there that most users don’t really need. I think the only thing I kept was the weather program.

So what’s your reasoning for the change to the reliable and funni penguin OS?

    Windows 3.11 or Windows for Workgroups. Maybe they were the same thing, I don’t really remember.

    I needed reliable networking, the ability to process large documents (which word couldn’t do at the time), and actual multitasking was nice. The system was a bit rough but quite usable. It’s not as if Windows was great at the time anyway.
