Operating Systems
I have a Dell Laptop that currently runs Windows XP. I bought it for my son a few years ago and now it is our family computer.
It's been running a bit slow and some of the programs need to be re-installed as they are missing .dll files or whatever. I am going to reformat the hard drive and reinstall the operating system but was thinking that it might be a good time to try something other than Windows.
While at one time I used to be right up to speed on all this stuff, I have to admit that over the past few years I haven't paid as much attention to advances in Operating Systems. What I am looking for is some help in rebuilding the software on this laptop.
What does the hive mind of TFP suggest? What are the pros and cons of your suggestion?
Thanks in advance.
