Dual boot your current one so you have a choice to learn Linux at your own pace! Still have w11 for a fall back just on case.

    I'm on something that runs a haswell era chip. Linux is why this thing is still running and the reaper can have it when he punches me in the face to take it from me.

    Remind me, is that 5th or 4th gen Intel? I'm thinking 5th, I seem to remember haswell-E (extreme) half gen coming out, which is why I'm stuck... but either way that's awesome! Coming up on 12 years solid! Just retired my 3rd gen and opted to take my 7th gen daily driver and replace that machine, and make a 12th the new daily. Last year, so prices were a bit better. Didn't have a use for that 3770K though anymore unfortunately.

    How hard is it to dual boot it? I’m about to pull the trigger, just need an evening free to do it

    Not hard at all. If you install Windows first, the Linux install should add a windows entry to the bootloader splash screen.

    If you do it the other way, you have to do a lot more work to get them to play nice.
