I've got a friend who's a computer geek, and he's not a fan of ANY of the products from Microsoft. He tells me that for my computer to run better, I need to not only dump Internet Explorer in favor of Firefox, but that I should dump Windows completely and switch my operating system to something called Ombuntu [I believe that's it].
I know a lot of you use Firefox, and are mostly pleased with it...but is anyone here experienced with Ombuntu? Friend tells me that since it's not Windows based, I can throw away any antivirus software...because nobody's writing virus programs for Ombuntu! From what I've researched on my own, Ombuntu works with OpenOffice, which I have on my computers in lieu of Microsoft Office. But since most of the PC world is Windows-oriented, I'm just wondering if switching to Ombuntu would put me out of synch with everyone else...which is not a good thing when sending out resumes and job apps.
Anyone have any expertise to offer? Like ol' Ross Perot, I'm all ears.
