More about linux Mint

Linux Mint is a Linux-based computer operating system best known for its usability and ease of installation, particularly for users with no previous Linux experience.

Linux Mint comes installed with a wide range of software that includes a full office suite (LibreOffice), Firefox web browser, Thunderbird email client, XChat & Pidgin instant messenger software, Transmission a bit torrent client, VLC media player to play DVD movies, AVI and MP4 files and GIMP a photo editing program that comparable to Photoshop. Additional software that is not installed by default can be downloaded using the package manager and there are nearly 30000 apps available to download including games.

Linux Mint offers support for more than 46 languages and can also run many programs designed for Microsoft Windows (such as Microsoft Office), through Wine and can also connect to other computers running Windows across your wired or wireless network to share files and printers.

Due to Linux being designed with security in mind from the ground upwards there is no need to run resource hogging anti virus and anti spyware on Linux Mint meaning you will find the same computer is more responsive and boots faster than its Windows counterpart
