Windows What!
I read the article on Windows 11, and didn’t understand the article at all. I’ve been using Linux for over 12 years, having once been a mainframe computer engineer, when the first thing we were given was a diagram of how the equipment worked.
Can one relate Windows 11 and Linux to
VirtualBox
with Windows running inside? If it’s Linux then it’s open source, so anybody can get access to it. Is this true with Windows 11?
What I’m afraid of is Windows 11 will still be hacked, so people will be aware of Linux and we’ll see more problems of someone hacking into Linux.
I’m not interested in Windows in any form. One has no control over the update system, which at times takes forever. Under this system will everything be run in User mode? Updates and backups – can one still use Synaptic, on the Linux side? Where will programs for Windows 11 be found? I expect I’ve only touched the surface of this system.
