Windows 10 to 11

[Woody]

Ok, trying to decide what to do I have three computers that I use although two are rarely used. One is W-11 and the other two are W-10 and are not capable of being upgraded they are like me just to old I guess. Never tried Linux and after looking into it there are several to choose from so what are my options Linux, new computer or disconnect the two W-10's from the internet. The end of 10 is coming

I've been on that similar dilemna in the past and I decided to keep my best and mostly used computer at home and buy a very dependable computer that I carry around to and from work and for leisure use, while away from home.  I you are computer savvy and love to work on operating systems and have tons of time to do so, Linux is a great way to explore its potential.  I tried Linux, but decided to stay with Windows to do digital comms as a long time ham radio operator.  My suggestion to you is to just get rid of your old Win 10 computers since they are 'rarely' used and simply upgrade your current and mostly used computer to its full potential and enjoy it.  It is true, the end of Win 10 is coming to an end just like anything else.

If you want to play with Linux, I've found one of the easiest to install and has similarity to Windows is Linux Mint.  If your hardware is old, there's a 'light' version of Linux Mint.  You can also try before you commit to it by creating a bootable Linux Mint USB using a Windows app called 'Rufus'.  Yet another option - buy a new hard drive and use the bootable Linux Mint USB to install it to the new hard drive.  Keep your Windows drive hooked up in the computer, and you will be able to browse the old drive.
