From the post:

>In January I finally made good on my threat/promise to install Linux on my desktop. I wanted to see how far I could get using a Linux PC as my main computer without doing a bunch of research beforehand or troubleshooting afterwards. Since then I have booted into Windows exactly twice: once to scan a multipage document that wasn’t scanning right in Linux, and once to print a photo for my kids’ school on extremely short notice. There’s a reason it’s taken me three months to write the next installment in my Linux diary: nothing has gone horribly wrong.

20 something years ago it was a struggle. These days there is little Linux can't do.

Honestly the biggest hurdle is which office suite to pick. But 95% of all users just use a web browser for everything.

There are others. LibreExcel is not as good as open office excel.
