Integrate Linux with the Windows you know and love with no fear of breaking anything important.
If you're reading this you're probably very happy with Windows. After all, Windows 11 has just arrived with all its newness, and even if you can't actually update to it, Windows 10 isn't going away.
So why am I talking about learning Linux? Well for one, it's never too late or a bad idea to learn something new. You might not use Linux right now and you're probably thinking it'd be a waste considering you're happy with Windows. But Linux isn't just some other desktop operating system you don't care about. It has plenty of applications out in the big wide world.
