Windows 8.1 & Ubuntu

[Tek Ang]

Thanks for the feedback... your issue is what I am concerned about.

To be fair with Microsoft, I find Windows 8.1 is much better than the other Windows versions, however, typical Microsoft, they introduced the EFI... which technically monopolised the used of the computer solely for Windows.

I had Issues with EFI/Secure Boot when installing Ubuntu 12.04.4 along 
side Windows 8.1 (which Boot-Repair could NOT resolve to my 
"Satisfaction"), hence I went with OpenSUSE 13.1 (which just "Worked" out 
of the Box) on my ASUS Desktop.  Although with Ubuntu 14.04 just being 
released, I can NOT tell you whether its EFI/Secure Boot Support has 
"Improved"???
