I'm running Windows 10 on both my desktop and Surface Pro 3, but given what's going on politically with tech (Feds vs. Apple, other law enforcement vs. WhatsApp, the NSA opening their databases of warrantlessly obtained communications of US citizens to the Feds and even local law enforcement agencies), I'm looking to dual/multiple boot both.
I have been using Mint for work, but how they got hacked and how they handle OS security (they just blacklist updates that may cause instability, which is idiotic) pissed me off, so I'm also looking for another stable dev environment.
So, I'm testing out candidates on VirtualBox. I'll likely go Xubuntu or Kubuntu for my work environment (LTS to more or less lock it in), and I've been really impressed with Manjaro for daily use (think a Mint version of Arch, except with much better documentation and a group that actually works with Arch and upstream repos on security and stability issues). Just need to figure out which desktop environment I want, but I like the rolling release aspect for a daily driver.
