Yup.

For all you 'hurr no updates' morons:

- What is the #1 malware vector, BY FAR, on a stand-alone desktop PC [*]? The web browser.

- Are there many browser-based remote root exploits that only target an XP host? No (not cost effective, most privilege escalation exploits are common across most Windows versions).

- Can I run an up-to-date web browser, with NoScript and uBlock? Yes.

Q.E.D

[*] No untrusted devices on LAN, no wifi, not using pirated software, not using untrusted third party software in general.

Make sure to select custom install while installing, and select everything you need, including "additional drivers". Otherwise nothing will work.

I installed it with a real CD on my old computer, runing a 999mhz duron. Didn't really feel that special. I'm still using 7, thinking of migrating to Arch full time.
