- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.

3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.

sudo
in Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts

You said thousands of dollars. They're not thousands. And yeah, you can get a cheaper machine. And put some flavor of GNU/Linux on that too!
Highest market share ever, these days!
I don't think you need a CS degree to run through this guide.
Here's all the "techy people you know that might want to help you don't know anything about Linux" coming together as a community to share what they know about the distro I linked to.
Stop being hyperbolic.
They do for me!
Once again, here's one at $750.
Here's some great laptops with GNU/Linux pre-installed.
Here's another company!
There are vendors supplying workforce laptops and miniPC's running MintOS for less than $350 per unit, in bulk!
All of them prove your silly, bogus assertions wrong.
Nah. Don't have to.
