I'm not a Linux expert neither, not even an intermediate but certainly not a newbie. But I'm happy to share my knowledge based on experiences.

Do you care about Linux only in "virtual box" mode? That's why it runs "herky-jerky". It's not designed to "replace" Windows but it also doesn't like being put in after-burner.

Thank you for taking the time to share all that!
I'll read through that later when I have more time.
For now, I will say that no, this is not for Virtual Box.
I'm talking about running it natively.
I very much prefer the concept of a portable OS like Puppy Linux, that can be run off a thumb drive or installed alongside Windows (I have a couple machines with 5 or more different versions of Puppy alongside Windows, and they all work).
My complaints are more about the feel of the GUI, the mouse, the keyboard shortcuts, and front end in general. I like the classic Windows Explorer, Start Menu and search bar.
Someone shouldn't have to be a rocket scientist to tweak Linux to do a few of these things.

I will read your post in detail a little later on, thanks again!
