I appreciate the advice! Thank you!

Thank you! What does Grub mean?

Okay great! What are the improvements/benefits of KDE that make you say that?

What do the "versions" represent? From what I understand elsewhere, Gnome is the desktop styling correct?

Okay I appreciate that advice!

Okay thanks for the response!

Yeah as a beginner I will agree with you! Haha

Thank you!

Perfect, thank you!

Yes non-corporate is pretty important to me as the reason to move away from Windows in the first place! Thanks for the suggestions!

Do most distributions not have those things? I imagined a taskbar/search/options to be pretty standardized and having the option for desktop with icons at least.

Okay thank you! Do you know of a good list of Linux compatible alternatives to Windows software? I'm sure I can track some down but may want to get familiar before making the jump like you said.
