You really are an old tr, er, um, geezer.... lol!!!!!
Scube is a spring chicken compared to you and Ribs! lol!!!!!!
Here is the real problem.
We're OLD. WE HATE CHANGE. It's natural.
Zim had it right a long while ago. Get off Mickey soft and use a newer distro of linux like Mint..
Alas, we are creatures of habit and comfort with things that are familiar to us.
Like you, I LOVE my windows 7 Pro. I got windows 10 on my laptop and don't like it as much as my windows 7.
So I need to decide if I am going to just leave well enough alone or meddle around.
My son in law brought me a newly acquired small desktop with windows 10 on it. I would have to be able to transfer all my operating system and programs onto this new puter in order to use it..
That's a tall order. Not sure how to accomplish that.
So I am kinda stuck.....
