I have tried Linux and just can't figure out the ins and outs of it. I guess i'm to old to change. Still run two drives with w7 on the one and w10 on the other. I wish i could have bought a copy of 8.1 but this thing would have updated to 10 anyway if i didn't keep a close watch on it. Any system can be a royal PITA!!! Seems back when the 2000 came out what a mess. Vista was no better. Each has there goodies and bad.. just have to take the good with the bad and get on with it. I do remember issues with them all some more than others. 2000 was a PITA. XP not to bad, Vista shit, 7 real good, 8 junk, 8.1 not to bad, 10.. not so great. maybe 11 will come out soon and it will be like 7 really good! Biggest reason not to use Linux is My weather programs do not work in it. It almost don't like 7, the new software came out a little over a year ago and its 10 friendly. Thats about right. It plays nice with 10 better than anything else including 7. never had the chance with 8.1, but it was supposed to work with it and 7. The new software coming out with the Atlas Elite series will be 10 all the way. They just finally got new software for Macs! I don't have enough info as to if this new software will be Mac as well or not. But it will only work on w10 for now. It works better on Pro than Home. Maybe because its pro software or something. With the Weather Service involved anything is possible. All i know is when i upgrade my weather station next year, I will not have any choice when that software comes out. All said, it will be over 500 bucks for that new weather station, and thats with discount! Not cheap at all. Anyway, itt is what it is.....
