    You can install it, and run Ubuntu update to have it moved to latest edition of it!

    As latest was based upon 12.04, I had it updated to 15.04...

    Linux just so much nicer, as many Govt departments actually operate on Linux servers, not windows!

    Thanks for the suggestion, if I install an OS for a Christian or a young person I'll try that method. Yes, I tell the people at the VA that they can order their computers with Linux everytime I meet a new one. And from a person that worked at NASA I learned that the systems used to operate the Spacecrafts and the Space Station are not windows nor are Mac because of vulnerability. That leaves some form of Unix and if it's good enough for NASA I can't a reason to mistrust it.

    yes, as they also demand Black Berry phones, and linux servers, as they need to have it more security proof than windows allows for!
