18.04 of ubuntu? that's a keeper mainly because it is LTS (Long Term Support)
and you get 5 years of updates... 18.10 is not LTS and you have to update from
it faster as newer ones are released... i forget the support term on non-LTS
releases, though...

we've been using kubuntu here because the KDE interface is pretty similar to
winwhatever and folks trying it out find it more comfortable and familiar...
my 84yo (R.I.P.) father had no problems at all with kubuntu 14.04 when trying
it before moving away from Vista... the move from Vista was due to what turned
out to be really cruddy video drivers for the ATI video card that came with
the machine... still had similar problems with it and kubuntu but we sussed
that muckitymuck when we swapped out that card for NVIDIA...
