Personal Consumer Issues • How to Move to Linux

$

I left Windows for my home computer over the crappy Vista version. I tried to move to Linux on my home machine but some of my music software and equipment didn't have good Linux alternatives. If I remember correctly there were also issues with video drivers not being updated in timely manner. It seemed I was always having to tinker with something which can be fun but sometimes you just want to use the computer as a tool. Last time I checked you couldn't get MS Office for Linux. I know there is other software with similar functionality but I have too much muscle memory with MS Office products.

My decision was to move to a Mac. Mac OS has Unix under the hood. You get all the benefits of an easy to maintain and use OS, plenty of applications available, and you also have the ability to drop down into a terminal window with a Command Line Interface if that's what you want. You can also get MS Office and Visual Studio for Mac.
