| I can't even play any of my older games on it. I tried to get Sim City 4 installed but it got rejected! I wish I had Linux. |

why can't you install linux OP?
@rand lol yes you can, chrome works on linux and a lot of games run great on Wine, the rest can be emulated via a virtual machine |

@vine
I bet it doesn't even run games as fast?
Someone on Twitter got Linux and couldn't install Chrome coz apparently they stopped supporting it. |

"sim city 4" please tell me this is satire
The FitnessGram PACER Test is a multi-stage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter PACER Test will begin in 30 seconds, line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal (ding a ling). A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound (ding). Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word "start." On your mark, get ready, START. |

Stop wishing and just get it from the site because it's free. Be warned, for most games do not run on Linux, however Steam, Unreal Tournament 4, Minecraft etc works well. If you are willing to do Linux gaming, I suggest you install Ubuntu since it's very simple. The NVIDIA drivers are quite a piece of cake to obtain. Not to mention, it is a good idea to use the Linux ZEN kernel, a highly optimized version of the original fit for gaming.
You can also downgrade windows 10 to 7, ISO image is here

You may have to somehow get a product key |
