I actually used to be able to dual boot Ubuntu, but i just didn't see any reason for it. I haven't used it or any other linux in probably 5+ years, but at that time Ubuntu was the best and I still thought it was inferior to even winXP in virtually every way possible.

I thiiink Ubuntu is considered 2nd or 3rd best now, but just minor differences. 5yrs, yeah that's a long time. Just depends what you do with it, much like Android is a Linux kernel and you do Android stuff with it, as well as some emulation now.
Security is my main concern, support, then ease of use. For some, that's reversed (ode to early versions of
Widow Maker and
Blackbox hehe - imo
HLFS best). But
Ubuntu has come a long way with ease of use as well as support by/for Linux in general. Security has always been there. Like I can launch the
Steam app from Ubuntu and play my favorite games all natively. Not all games, but oddly all my fav Steam games have Linux support now. You can see what games are supported from the steam store page, will have a Steam Play icon next to the Windows or Mac icon. Then Ubuntu has their own Google Play style system now, called Ubuntu Software Center. Outside of native app support, the windows emulator has made a lot of progress, most stuff runs.
Microsoft's Windows 10 upgrades are getting even more sneaky-pushy
Fearing forced Windows 10 upgrades, users are disabling critical updates instead

Just mimics the UI, it's not really running the OS in your browser ... yet.
