Office 2010 works fine on W10, that's what I use when I need it. Don't know if it works on 11 but very likely. Libre Office is pretty good. Mainly I use what evedamadiynot suggests.

Yes, Mint is a lightweight OS based on Ubuntu with all the basic software pre installed. I run it on my 13 year old ThinkPad. Not all Windoze software will run under Wine, but it's a good place to start and you can run VB on Mint if needed.

For that, I run virtual Windoze machines under VirtualBox (VB), isolated from the internet in the case of W2000, XP & 7. I still have apps that require XP & 7 , and I have a W10 VM with Office 2010 which lets me get round the odd Libre Office/ MS Office compatibility issue, of which there are...

The problem with recording using a usb drive on a smart tv is that, unlike eg a Tivo, most of them (tvs) do not allow you to record one or two channels simultaneously whilst at the same time watching a third. However, since just about everything is available over the Internet on catch up, this...

Bare wires and cotton reels? :whistle:

Why does the pump have to be built in? What's wrong with using a small shower pump?

Pi tank coil In the linear amp. Amplifier RF No2 Mk3

Worst one I've had was whilst I was tuning up the tank coil of a WS19HP ,whilst sitting on the metal cased accumulators. Threw me across the room, but no injuries.
