Well, I figured this would be the best forum for this subject, if not then feel free to move it wherever. Anyway, I'm conducting a very small survey for a college project. I gotta survey at least 30 people about any subject for an essay of some sort. It involves the use of Ubuntu as an alternative OS and stuff like that. Sp I'd like to ask the community for a bit of your time to answer my survey (it's seriously only 2 questions).
Link to survey.
I know Ubuntu is the most casual of all Linux distros, so yeah, please try to answer according to the first distro you used or whatever.
Well, I guess this thread can also serve as a Linux general of some sort.
I'm thinking of installing Ubuntu on my HDD, main reasons are for a few steam games I wanna try on Linux and just for the convenience of it. Do any of you think installing it on an external HDD would affect loading times too much? Or should I just make a partition on my main hard drive? The latter is most likely the best option, but having it on a separate HDD is a bit more convenient to move around computers easier, I'm just a bit paranoid on making a partition on the main hard drive, and obviously running a VM isn't the best idea for running games.
