Linux Mint

 

 

With all the Windows XP end of life fiasco now well behind us, Linux is the preferred choice for individuals.organizations alike around the world. XP users could have a viable alternative in Linux Mint! Linux Mint has the same look and feel as XP, switching over will in all probability be a breeze for long time XP users. A more friendlier environment can be generated by setting Mint's Cinnamon interface to look and act a lot like XP. Users won't have to shell out an extra penny to use Mint. Further, the system requirements to run even the latest version Mint 16 Petra are minimalistic. All you need is an x86 processor, 512 MB RAM' 5 GB disk space, a graphics card that can handle 800×600 resolution, and a CD/DVD drive or USB port and you're good to go!
