    I'm not a techy so this might seem like a really stupid ****ing question but can you have both Windows and Linux running on the same laptop?

    Yes you can either set up a dual boot or with puppy run it within Windows from a flash drive or DVD.....in fact most linux distros can be run from a DVD without installing on your PC/Laptop....a good idea before going the dual boot route....see if you like it first

    What irritates me is that when I use Windows Update they automatically tick to update to Windows 10 yet it's hidden away in optional updates.

    It seems madness that anybody would think it's a good idea to do something like that without asking.

    Yeah I read it last year. Excellent how it portrays the company that subverts the usual standards of privacy and personal identity that people have accepted for most of their lives. Some of the slogans - 'Secrets are Lies', 'Privacy is Theft' and 'Caring is Sharing'. Symbolic of the creeping capture of most of our personal identities.
    Needless to say, I have not upgraded to Windows 10 and I will not do until most of the bugs and glitches have been eradicated.

    Just dragging this back up as I've just got round to looking at it & my VAIO is telling me I can't update it until October/November depending on my system. As it's originally on Windows 8, which I like, but has been updated to 8.1.
