Modern Co.

            Recently I watched  a Tek Syndicate video which inspired me to install Linux onto one of my old computers.  With a whopping 768 MB of RAM and 2 Intel ® Pentium ® 4 CPU's, Ubuntu 14.04 32-bit runs surprisingly well. The installation process is very simple, however I will not guide you through the steps here as the Ubuntu website has a very detailed guide. It took me ~1 hour from the moment I clicked on the install button on the Ubuntu website to finishing the setup.

            I was glad that it came with Firefox unlike the usual Internet Explorer you get with Windows. Ever since I got Linux I have been trying to use it full  time, however there were still times that I had to go on my Windows laptop for certain programs. Another thing which I was happy about was that Ubuntu came preloaded with the LibreOffice suite which brought back memories of Microsoft Word 2000. Seriously this looks like Word 2000 with a white theme on it:

           

             I truly believe that Linux is the operating system of the future, already the majority of smartphones run android which is based on Linux. Of course Linux may not suit your needs but I strongly recommend trying Linux out. It's free and is not resource hungry.
