We're In Love...

...and her name is Debian, and we love her all the way to her core...

Now if that sounds dirty, you might want to cover your ears and close your eyes, because we're about to get...nastyyyyyyyy...

Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run...

We're about to go 70/30, with a Dual Boot OS, Win 7 30% and a Debian Linux Core 70%...

Now of course we are still going to be buying a new Windows 10 phone when they come out, regardless if Debian stepped up their game and came out with a phone themselves.

We owe it to Microsoft because they got us here, so we owe it them, but believe us when we say it...if you don't step up your game MS, we'll leave you like a bad habit...and that's a fact!

...see ya' on the other side...

**UPDATE**

When someone says the grass in greener on the other side of the fence will depend on their interpretation of the hue they see...

There are many reasons why Debian is better than Windows, and just a few reasons why Windows is better than Debian.

Windows is a loose term anymore where MS used to be the hierarchy in the cliché, but now a days it's all about the Windows you see or use.

The install went great, you load your MS Windows first on 30gb then load your Debian.

Debian will automatically configure the grub for you which is your boot menu.

The Boot menu is your options of Debian boot or MS Windows boot. You'll use them individually, so after awhile you'll have to choose one or the other...

Debian loads a full on Office Program completely compatible with MS Office, but MS Windows won't load an Office Program on install.

Debian installs all updates and software on Install, MS Windows does not and requires you to download about a 1gb of updates before you can use it.

...you know, Important updates and...Optional Updates ;-)

Debian is Free, MS Windows is not, unless of course you bought 8.1 and are going to 10, then yes, it's free, but Debian is free.

As for Malware...this is the tricky part because there is no defense for a browser based attack, but there is software to prevent it going any further.

Apple users swore up and down they didn't need Malware protection and come to find out that they were hit harder in one year than MS Windows ever had, so we don't want to be an Apple.

We are not sure of what Malware protection to use, but for now we are using nothing like most people do.

There is a Firewall that you can install for free and some secure boot called UEFI Secure Boot is the boot path validation component of the UEFI specification (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface)

We're not to sure about this and need some research on it, but we also hear it's a firmware update which could brick your computer, so we'll research ;-)

The one thing that didn't come over was our Wireless Card rtl8190 which of course was the one card that wasn't supported and apparently their is a blacklist driver download, but no success yet...

Otherwise we are pleased with the install and are glad we made the change.

We are still testing Softsphere on the Windows partition so that is why we decided to keep Windows, otherwise we would have went all in.

MS is supporting Linux Cloud solutions, which should be your first clue, "if you can't beat em' join em'...and that's a fact!
