I must fit in the middle here. I know that virtual drives exist, I've had a friend install one on my computer, but I never got it to work. I installed an old game off of a disk once, but when it quit working I had no idea why or what to do. I had a laptop and installed Ubuntu on it, and just never used it because I didn't know what it would be good for and I got tired of constantly updating/fixing/troubleshooting it.

I'm used to the options and menus of windows, Linux is just confusing to me.
