Subject: Operating system other than Microsoft

Hello

What’s the latest Linux operating system. We’re going to test Linux on one of our computers to see how it will run with other software. Not going to drink the Microsoft kool-Aid and pay them monthly software tribute if we use windows 11.

This should be a selling point for you guys.
Best
