Heya

[Yoshi2889]

Hey everyone,

I'm Yoshi2889, but you can call me Yoshi. I'm 14 years old and on a local Gymnasium high school.
Over at SMF I'm a customizer, which means you check over mods and such.

As for Linux, my favorite distro is Elementary OS. I have a preference for Debian-based distros.
Next favorite distro is Ubuntu. After that is Linux Mint. Each distro has its strong points, but I love the simplicity and the awesome look of Elementary, besides it handles my SSD better than Ubuntu does (the latter crashes on startup because the process is going too fast, lol).

I own an ASUS K53E laptop, which is equipped with a Sandy Bridge Core i5 2450M processor which in turn is equipped with the Intel HD Graphics 3000 graphics. My laptop is also equipped with a whopping 8 GB of RAM and a 256 GB Samsung 830 SSD.

I'm glad to get to know you all

Welcome Yoshi.

We keep Windows captive in VBox because the annual tax return software is Windows only.  Also online Uni courses often need Windows for interactive use.  Can't even use a Mac !!! 

[Taco.22]

There is some tax software for Linux.  Taco have you tried using tax software for Windows with wine?

This is specific software issued by the Australian Tax Office to enable online tax returns.  I haven't tried it in Wine - might give it a go come July.

[Yoshi2889]

I run software in it that Wine doesn't run
I also play some games in it yeah, though on the very lowest settings heh.

Thanks for the welcome
