I ran with XP and did not like 7 . When 8 came out I tried it and saw some
potential. I now run only one Linux box, 1XP Just in case and the rest all
run 10. Its not as bad as it seems. The biggest blow was the loss of a lot of
older programs that just won't run on 10, but they don't run on Linux either.

Thanks, Cliff! I was afraid that was the case. I'm about to dump Windows 7 as
I don't want to be forced to use Win 8 or 10. I hope I don't have to abandon
LFT in the process.

Gene,
I tried using LFT with Mint and Ubuntu in conjunction with Crossover by
Codeweavers. However, Crossover does not function with the current version of
LFT. Crossover advised that updating their software to function with LFT would
be placed on there work plan but it was not a priority and there was no
timeline available as to when it might be updated.
I also tried Sun's virtual machine to run LFT but was not successful.
It was about at this point that I came to the conclusion that there weren't
enough benefits in running a linux system, primarily because of the absence of
really good software. Both Mint and Ubuntu worked flawlessly I was really
impressed. The available application software was free but didn't work very
well for me.

Does anyone have experience in running the current version of LFT under Linus?
If so, which version of LInux? Thanks!
