So if I wanted two users for instance, then I'd have to download an extra copy of each piece of software (one per user) to be able to access (if I wanted tk store them on the drive and not on the network?)

Interesting. Thank you!

I'll be stuck with Windows on my work laptop, that's not something that I will be able to change anyway. I can point out as things come up, but with industry accepted software (like SolidWorks for example) that we use daily I can't see us switching to any alternative.

That's why I'm wanting to make the switch now! I'm really disliking how constrained I've felt with what applications and especially subscription based services.

Okay thanks for the response!

Do most distributions not have those things? I imagined a taskbar/search/options to be pretty standardized and having the option for desktop with icons at least.

I don't play it a ton, but didn't want to completely lose the possibility of playing especially when friends or young family members come to visit.

This is perfect! Thanks for linking it!

Oh that's a shame.

Okay that's good advice. Thank you!

Oh, why would the Rift not work? Just no compatibility? I've used it with some Steam games which I thought I understood to work fine in Linux.

Okay great I'll add it to the list to research! Thank you.
