A reasonably secure operating system.. If you like computer security .. and mucking about.. and have the hardware to run this as is eats ram and processor you may like this. Edward snowdens preferred O/S .. Qubes.

Topics like this almost always interest me, thank you for sharing.

Some of these are really great fun !!! If you get into dual booting computers you can have 2 or three Operating systems happily sitting side by side as long as you have the drive space.

Most linux Operating system automatically install something called "Grub Bootloader" which instantly reassigns your boot order and stacks the operating systems from the boot sector ready to choose the one you want to use when you switch the machine on !

Pleasure.. It's a very interesting area and we only really get shown windows by the mainstream and OSX.. I love OSX but there its a heck of a lot of other great stuff / a lot of it free out there!!!

cool tool! A good way to click all those phishing links I get in e-mails sometimes!

You could yes ... you could secure your main os Qube's and only the browser cube can be damaged while you still log ... so only one small component would need a reinstall rather than a piece of malware running riot into the main system or kernel.

16GB?! Sounds like bloatware. 😛

Hahahaha!!!! Awesome

Interesting! I know hardware pretty well but, I know just enough about software to jack up my system so, I'm a bit intimidated about trying a new OS.

It's a beautiful OS but to be honest it really needs at least 16 GB RAM better with 32! Bit much for my main net machine .. Other would handle it but that is more for media. Even that would be pushing at a quad core 2.4 on 16GB RAM overclocking at 3.6 You can dual boot stuff ! another option. Or running inside VMware .. would take some hardware though doing it that way and kinda defeats object of Qubes 🙂

@Nickbeee I built a desktop that has 16g ram but, I use it as a recording unit for my music studio. I've got an Acer Predator laptop that's a potential candidate though. It's got 16g of ram also but, I might upgrade that to 32.

@Duke I have played with the OS but me little 8Gb ram machine was struggled.. Even on SSD.. The OS is awesome.. its all compartmentalised so you give access permission to parts as you use it .. it's nuts lol 🙂
