Simon Bates has Given Windows The Boot!
After listening with interest to your tales of tinkering with
Linux, and as Windows was getting on my tits, I decided to give
Linux a try. I used a piece of software on a USB called Ventoy. It allows you to put as many
ISO files on a USB as you want without committing to any one
operating system. I tried about 5 live Distros over the course of a
week. It really is a tinkering dream. Distro-hopping is so
addictive. It’s like setting up a new phone then changing it again!
I couldn’t believe how advanced Linux has become. In the end I
opted for Bazzite which is based
on Fedora but geared
towards gamers as I have a big Steam library.
Every game just works as soon as downloaded. As Gareth said, there
seems to be a decent software store with everything you need - and
it all just works. Thanks guys for giving me a little nudge.
Looking forward to your Linux special.
