I don't understand why it never was filled! Mint is far better and more stable and more secure over all than any Windows OS.
I've been looking at alternatives to Windows for the last while... again. I've tried various flavors of Mint, Win4Lin, Fedora, Ubuntu and a few others over the years.
While they have all "worked", none have "really" worked if you know what I mean. While I could get by with the various linux distros I've always had issues where things like the sound wouldn't work, or they weren't able run windows software that I use, or they would sort of run the programs, but not completely. I know people that are used to running linux and command line love it, but my family does not. I'm always the guy that get's asked to deal with the issues. Frankly my family doesn't have as many issues dealing with Windows as they do with linux.
I'd say that it's hard to get buy in on something like that.
