What computer OS system should I purchase within the next 3 months?

Peter Brooks

My home computer is coming to the end of it's useful life. It is a AMD CPU based Tower with Windows 7 OS.

In view of reported technical problems and cost associated with Windows 11, I am reluctant to purchase a new Windows based computer system.

Should I jump to an Apple Mac using MacOS version 14 Sonoma  or one of the Linux OS systems that use a AMD CPU?

    If you buy a PC from a major manufacturer, it will probably come with Windows 11 preinstalled.  So in that sense, you've already paid.  If you buy a Mac, it will likely be more expensive - that's the premium for having an Apple badge.
