        I’ve boarded the Linux train but not everyone can replace their OS nor troubleshoot issues, and good luck bringing your computer to a repair shop if you do run Linux. For the average person, they need someone to help them whether it’s Windows or Linux.

          Yes installing Linux mint is just as easy as installing windows. It runs almost the same as windows but faster.
