cool good points there is so much choice out there now

thesedays i stick with whatever OS came with the hardware and ALWAYS run virtualbox with the desktop distro of choice (xubuntu or oracle linux)

Thank you, again everyone have their own needs and choices. My need was to run linux on a low powered laptop where Window 8 OS alone had taken 95% of the space and soon after the next patches it would have been unusable. But for you I think using Virtualbox would be a better choice if you have a powerful enough laptop/system. Linux distros are a great OS to run on your old or low power PCs/mac/laptops if Windows/Apple stops supporting it or become bloat.
