Why filter your cousin's world view when you could show him all available options and let him make an informed decision himself?
Microsoft isn't so "bad" any more with their shift towards open source.
- CalRobert 11y agoAllow me to clarify Cousin: "Ugggggg my laptop is garbage since I put on Windows 10 and it's so slooooooow, can you fix it? I can't even play Minecraft!!!!" Me: "Umm, I haven't actually used Windows in about 5 or 6 years and have no idea what's wrong - I also don't feel like spending my limited time visiting family messing around with your laptop. Here's a USB drive with Ubuntu, give it a shot" Cousin (next day): "DUDE that's amazing it's so fast! I had to figure out UEFI stuff but I installed Ubuntu and Minecraft is faster than it's ever been before! I have a great dual boot setup going!" Anyway, I don't feel too bad about it. Incidentally, UEFI is one of the many reasons MS puts me off.
