Best answer: It's getting close, but not comparable to Windows if you're holding it up to Microsoft's standards (for most games, "industry standard" and Windows-specific applications). Otherwise, Linux (as a whole) is perfectly fine for everything. For the most part, updates are NEVER forced - the user has complete control of when they want to run updates.

As far as telemetry goes, it's never built-in, and if any distribution does have telemetry it tends to get called out pretty quickly (in particular to Ubuntu and Deepin recently)

I know Microsoft computers use Intel. Does Intel make the hardware or does Microsoft?

Best answer: Mostly appearance-wise there is a different start menu different colors different visual effects but as far as the code that's under the hood there is very little difference Windows 10 is simply a more developed form of Windows 8 and Windows 10 is going to continue to develop all the way up to the time that Windows 12 comes out and yes praise God Microsoft has finally announced that next year we're going to get Windows 12 Hallelujah hallelujah Windows 10 is going to be replaced finally that's the best news I have heard in a long long time!

Does Microsoft also build the computer or does it do only the software portion of the computer?

Best answer: you need to boot from a Windows 10 recovery USB and run a repair
If you haven't a Windows 10 recovery USB you can make one using Windows 10 media creation tool, a working computer and a blank 8GB USB drive.

Download and run the tool insert the blank USB when needed. after that insert the recovery USB you made into your damaged computer boot off that, you may need to change the boot options in the BIOS to boot from the USB, then follow the screen prompts
Do not choose the option to install windows 10, choose repair my computer

Best answer: Some linux fans write this to imply microsoft is greedy (M$) and not as good (Windoze) as linux. The fact still remains that while Windows is far from perfect, it still remains king due to the fact that other companies have corroborated with microsoft the keep certain important features "proprietary" that makes Windows a necessity for certain things like gaming or certain video/audio files. Linux is great, especially as a learning tool that can also be applied to Windows and perhaps for older people who just need the basics. Where linux really shines is if you need a server. Most linux fans I personally know also have Windows to do what linux cannot.

Best answer: The main reason for switching to Word would be if

(1) for some reason someone required you to switch OR

(2) you were unable to send your WP file in Word format OR open a Word file. OR

(3) you can no longer get the job done (ie. get what you need done) using WP



#2 above would be the most likely issue IF one ever came up. The reason that would be key is because Word is the industry standard across the country and has been for years. This popularity spread to home users as well.

So as long as you are able to successfully send your files as Word (since the majority of users only use Word) and can open Word files successfully (again, since the majority of users only use Word thus would be sending files to you in Word's format) then there is absolutely no compelling reason for you to switch.
