    Like using a puncture repair kit and duct tape to fix a condom after sex.

    Just put one of the Linux distros on it that look like Windows. Install LibreOffice and lookalike programs.

    And No, I don’t care why you think you can’t use Linux.

      Parsec doesnt work as host on Linux. Biggest reason I can’t use it. I think you care just a teeny tiny bit.

      You Linux fanboys are the worst. If you don’t have anything useful to add to the conversation, then just keep scrolling.

        I’m an ex Windows fan. If you didn’t use Windows 3.11 in a corporate environment to try to get some work done, you wouldn’t and won’t ever understand.
