I really don't miss Windows at all...Linux OS's have improved /simplified so much from when I first started playing around with it The top distros are very close to looking & feeling like Windows XP.

Some info links for those that might want to explore Linux.

My fav is Mint Mate on desktop & Zorin Lite on the older laptops.

If you want to try some & don't know how to burn an ISO image to CD , there is site to order- approx 5.95 each...
Some Libraries have computer magazines or books that will have a Live bootable cd inside - you can run from your cd drive to see if you like it..
