Unlike with Windows, I didn't need to restart the computer because of the update. I suspected the Grub Menu would be fixed by the update, so I wanted to see if it had been restored. | Unlike with Windows, I didn't need to restart the computer because of the update.

Upon booting, there was the Grub Menu. A Windows update messed up my laptop (partially) and an Ubuntu update fixed it. | Upon booting, there was the Grub Menu. A Windows update messed up my laptop (partially) and an Ubuntu update fixed it. | ||

Saying Windows can do things that Linux can't and then quoting specific apps is a poor argument. Every platform or OS has OS-specific programs, programs available for only that OS. I can't run some of the Star Wars apps available on my wife's iPad on my Android tablet, because they are not available for Android. So I guess, using that logic, I could say "iOS can do things that Windows can' | Saying Windows can do things that Linux can't and then quoting specific apps is a poor argument.

- | You can either choose an Operating System for the quality of the Operating System, or you can choose it for what programs are available, or you can try to find a balance between the two. For me, Linux, and specifically Ubuntu, gives me the best performance of any Operating System, and it’s stable and secure. I chose it for its quality, not what programs were available. Yet there is an incredible set of programs available. It's just that some programs are not the same ones available in Windows. | + | Les gens diront que Linux ne peut pas faire tout ce que peut faire Windows, puis, au lieu de lister des choses précises comme la manipulation des images, les jeux, etc., ils citeront Skyrim ou Photoshop. Ce sont des « programmes » que vous pouvez exécuter sous Windows - et pas ce que vous pouvez « faire » sous Windows que vous ne pouvez pas faire sous Linux. Vous pouvez jouer à des jeux sous Windows, vous pouvez jouer à des jeux sous Linux. Vous pouvez manipuler des images sous Windows et vous pouvez manipuler des images sous Linux. Vous pouvez lire de la musique sous Windows |

- | Let's explore that. Windows has always cost money until Microsoft gave it away for a short period. Yet Windows has deserved criticism for many reasons: Lack of stability, BSODs (Blue Screen Of Death), and many others. If Windows was a series of cars, Microsoft would be out of business for all the warranty repairs they had to do. No one would put up with a car that stalled randomly. Unless they got it for free. | + | Let's explore that. Windows has always cost money until Microsoft gave it away for a short period.
