That's one of the reasons I don't switch to Linux. The only thing I run on the computer in question is designed to run on windows and is resident on my hard drive. No browser is involved. It WILL run on Linux but is difficult to install and configure.

This old machine is at its limit on memory etc. I'll just keep it going until it dies. Need to upgrade to SSD anyway.

I can highly recommend cheap chromebook laptops. I have a refurbished Dell that I paid like $125 for, it does everything the most expensive computers do but its basically immune to any viruses or things like that. Nothing is stored on the computer so if it dies you get another one and log into your account and you're back up and running. Its like 8 seconds on start up too. Very happy with them, seem to last about 3-5 years for me.
