I'm so happy. When I introduced my wife to Linux Mint a couple weeks ago I thought she might take a good look at it and then keep using Windows. Which would've been fine.
But to my surprise, she's actually giving it a fair change to use it daily! I created a little penguin icon on her Windows desktop labelled "Reboot to Linux", using a handy tool called Bootnext¹. This way, she doesn't have to mess with boot managers.
There has been surprinsingly little issues. If you're curios, I will list them briefly in the next post.
