Knowing what you are running on the computer you are running daily or almost daily only keeps you informed, helped and online, so be informed. Keep findind out what is changing as often as you can. I will try to help you with that but you should be checking that yourself you with that. Anyway, you are welcomed back anytime.
And, by the way, what you are doing as your job or passion is essential. Some of the sofware you use is optimised of one operating system or another so keep knowing if you have the Linux equivalent installed o are they runing using Wine or not?
