Sorry for the response delay on this, we aren't here over the weekend.
Buuuut let's see what we can do now! Is this still happening? If it is, can you provide your browser version so we can get the devs to take a look?
Sorry about that, and thanks for letting us know!

Hey, I know you all aren't here on the weekends. I just tried to log in to the my t-mobile account, and that thing in the upper left hand corner doesn't do anything. I am using Google right now, and it seems to responding ok. I tried to update Google Chrome, but I guess I may already have latest version.

I tried to log in to EDGE.

Lauren: I have worked on this problem for a couple of hours. I got SCAMMED on something called REIMAGE! It scanned my laptop, and at the end wanted a CODE to fix. I promptly uninstalled the program, and took EDGE off. Windows 10 will not let me delete. I will try to look for another browser. This is getting a little closer to go to Linux, and do away with Windows. Catch ya later.

Oh man.
That's awful! I hope you are able to get it fixed, that sounds like a nightmare.
My primary home machine is a Linux, so I won't try to sway you from the path of light.
But seriously, keep us updated, if there is anything we can do please please let us know!

Sway me, please! My best friend HATES Windows 10. I can get a computer shop near me to install Linux for $90. I have a version on a CD to download and install. I have a computer and a laptop that both have Windows 7. I believe 7 will stop updating next year. So far Google hasn't had any issues. Thanks!

I can send you some resources for self installs if you go that route! In a lot of cases you won't need to pay someone for an install.
Full disclosure I don't think a Linux box is for everyone, but they're great for lots of people!
What is your daily usage like? Is there anything Microsoft based you're pretty reliant on?

I would appreciate any resources. Somewhat disenchanted with Windows. A friend of mine who used to work at CERL in Champaign, IL really liked it. I would do a partion of my h/drive and drive around the block for a couple of miles. Thanks

EDIT: partition

I wound up back to Google. Can't figure what happened.

This right here - https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-install-ubuntu-desktop#0 is a good resource for installing Ubuntu!
It runs through everything pretty step by step, with visuals. There's also some pretty solid YouTube videos. If you are more comfortable taking it to someone to load it, I say go with your gut, but if you are confident in the possibility you can install yourself, it's not too hard~
This here - https://www.reddit.com/r/software/comments/6hg2kp/windows_10_vs_ubuntu_pros_and_cons/ will give a pretty solid pros and cons list along with some discussion regarding Linux/Ubuntu.
Let me know what you think or if you have any questions about either of those!

Thanks you very much! I should be able to go through the first link tomorrow morning. BTW, I will probably install it myself. If I can r/r on a hard drive I could do an install.

Ah!
That's awesome! Please please please keep me updated on what you do and if you do the install, I am excited to see how it goes.-Lauren

For my music mp3s I used a LOT of vinyl and a LOT of CDs. For the vinyl I had to use my turntable to record on a Phillips Audio CD Recorder, then take those CDs and run them through an old Roxio program to change the CDs to mp3s. It was well worth the effort as that process took a little over 11 years. And I ain't done yet.
