A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The last time I downloaded Linux mint to give it a try was the day before they announced the ISO from the official site had been injected with malicious code. Bad timing for my interest in using Linux, lol.
It's been a long time since I've given Linux much of an opportunity, I think I will give Mint a try.
It sounds like you are talking about running it in a virtual desktop first, dual booting with my current Windows OS. Is that accurate?
That screenshot made me smile immediately, I love stuff that adds character like that.
Thank you for the advice, I'm planning on digging into this a bit tonight once the kids are sleeping, and I might just take you up on that offer if I think of any questions!
