For years, I just continuously upgraded my Windows operating system, avoiding the poorly developed one. At work, we install and use a Linux distribution (Mint) on most the computers we sell. I’ve dabbled with Ubuntu in the past. For a month or so I was using a Chromebook as my travel machine and now I purchased a used 2010 MacBook Air. So what are my thoughts?
Honestly, while they’re all different if you’re doing basic tasks there’s really no difference. I mean the only thing you know is Microsoft Office then working on a Chromebook or a Linux machine can be challenging because only the web apps are available for those (no desktop support for those OS). Google Docs works on everything so if you’ve made the shift a completely online platform you’ll be find. LibreOffice is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux so it’s easiest to move between them (can’t install external apps on a Chromebook).
So it’s now about the specifications.
