I know but I haven't had experience with Linux since probably the 90's when they were touting it. If I remember I think it was Redhat. It wasn't the best back then and I'm sure it's better now but I pretty much know Microsoft OS inside and out.

I used to be the tech team manager for a MS only MSP but moving to Linux after that was like a breathvof fresh air. You dont realize how fucking goofy the Microsoft environment us until you climb out of it.

Install Ubuntu or an Ubuntu variant for an easy reintroduction to Linux.

Oh, and forget everything about Windows. Windows power-users actually often have a harder time learning Linux because the Windows way of doing things is ingrained into them. Just try to forget that if you want to learn about Linux beyond the user-facing WIMP (not an insult - "windows, icons, menus, pointer") level.
