good linux OS there, 8.1 I think is out now!!!
Sorry, I'd rather just stick with companies I trust.
Yes, and trust must be earned. But you haven't given Linux a chance to earn your trust. Also, Air Mapster would be quick to recommend FreeBSD over Linux, so I'd suggest you try both of those. (I haven't tried FreeBSD yet since I haven't decided whether I want to create a partition on my second HDD or whether I should just buy another one (three HDDs... ooh).)
But only if you get another hard drive. And since I doubt you will, this post is essentially addressed to anyone willing to experiment with OS's. =P
See thats the thing. Because I'm not terribly computer literate, I don't want to take the risk. Especially since theres nothing wrong (for what I want to do) with Windows, except for it continually crashing.
