Hi ILove! Feeling a bit better, thanx.
It's been pretty hot here lately, 87*F today (well, yesterday now.) It's definitely
time to get some tomato's in the ground. Where I am it's usually safe to plant them on the 15th but probably could have put them in a bit sooner.

Where would I look for a linux model?

Linux is software (an OS) and can be put on any machine that you would run Windows on. See-
https://www.linuxmint.com
For user manuals-
https://www.linuxmint.com/documentation.php
You can even put it on the same machine as Windows, providing your hard drive is large enough to be able to partition it. Many people after having Linux would never switch back. It is supposed to be more elegantly designed than Bill's big jumbled heap of 1's and 0's.

One option is if you get a new computer, you can migrate your current files on to the new machine (you will want to do this anyway) and, with the wiped hard drive on the old machine, you can load Linux on it and then you'll have a spare.

Before you give up on your machine, tell me, how big is your hard drive (C,
and how full is it?

And how is the big wedding coming along?
