With the death of Microsoft Windows 10 about 7 months away, you have an opportunity to a) break with the US tech broligarchs at Microsoft and b) save a pile of money by not racing out to buy a new computer and instead installing a version of GNU/Linux instead on your old computer.

"What happened?"
"I’m stuck. It's so embarrassing."
“I guess things went... a-rye?”
“Please do shut up.”
"You should get out of the sun."
"Why?"
"Otherwise, you'll be toast."
"You're an asshole, Charlie."
“You’re right, you deserve butter.”
