I paid for and installed Zorin 12.3 Ultimate a few months ago on an HP EliteBook 2760p with 8 GB ram. I bought the notebook specifically to run Linux alongside Windows and finally start learning how to use Linux. I chose Zorin solely on the basis of its compatibility with the used EliteBook I own. Other distros did not work nearly as well with the hardware as Zorin does. I've toyed with using Linux for the past 15 years or so and have never stuck with it and always fell back into using Windows. The EliteBook dual boots with Windows 10 & Zorin. Last September I gave in to installing the offered upgrade from Win 7 Professional to Win 10 and am very sorry I did. It is more stable now but when first installed it crashed constantly. I have seen more Blue Screens of Death in the past 6 months than I have in the preceding 10 years. I’ve been using linuxcommand.org to teach myself Linux but the problem I’m having is the file structure on Zorin looks different to me than the one detailed on the website. Through no fault of my own I managed to get Half-Life 2 and Half-Life 2 Episode Two running. No matter what I’m sticking with Linux. I’m not interested in using Windows as a service.
