Really? I heard that like macs linux doesn't get viruses....im new to it so I can't say much but I hope they don't! otherwise I'm just sticking to my mac

Just one!! Mint. But once I figure out my way around I want to try as many as I can.

Sorry for my cluelessness but I've never used it before last week.

Personally I didn't set it up myself so I have no idea what any of you are talking about lol. All I know is I'm using mint on my old dell. I find it slow and can't see any advantage at this point....

At least not for noobs lol

I have to admit Mint is probably the most user friendly of them for a beginner. I'm a newbie myself and found mint much easier. People are going to give you mixed reviews so I guess it's just a...

Linux is free however I would suggest trying out their paid services. I'm new to Linux as well and using the free services I just can't see a point to it

I was just wondering what advantage does Linux really have? I converted from windows to Linux and can't see the point. I'd rather just stick to my Mac :P thanks!!
