If are still not using Linux, now it is a good time to start

Relax in southern comfort on the east bank of the Mississippi. You're just around the corner from Beale Street and Sun Records. Watch the ducks, throw back a few and tell us what's on your mind.

If you boot up debian from a live USB stick it has installer within.

This site and the KA Store run Apache on a Debian installation.
We haven't used Windows Server in almost 20 years.

Yeah, thats exactly what I did. The user wasn't automatically added to the list. I had to do tons of stuff to get it working like Mint does after simply installing it. But I will give it another try.

A lot of Linux distributions are based on Debian. There isn't a much of a difference between Mint and Debian. Mint just comes with more pre installed software. If you're happy with Mint you might as well stick with it.
