Your attitude, though. Slather on that hate nice and thick. Was it good for you? Make you feel better now that you have someone to hang?

…it wasn’t what he said, it was the implication.

If you do try Linux:

• buy hardware that’s supported. For some things (storage) virtually everything works. For others, (video cards, latest-gen wifi) you need to make sure it’s supported out-of-the-box. It’s not worth the headache of trying to get it to work unless you just like geeking out.
• if some piece if software or hardware doesn’t work, it doesn’t work. If you spend more than a half hour (or whatever your limit is) trying to get it to work, just say to yourself ‘not available on Linux right now’ and move on. Linix has way more access to beta and alpha-level stuff, and that can make it tempting to try to fix whatever problem. Just don’t bother.

That said, most of the systems I use Linux on, it just works.

Hate is dull.

It’s been a little annoying. Anyways, thanks for thinking of FMHY.

fwiw, I’m now pretty darn happy with Linux and gaming. Granted, I use Steam, so there’s that.

There are issues sometimes, but I just keep a copy of windows around for windows-only things. Generally, Linux “just works” for me, but I’ve also learned to just skip it when something requires too much involvement to get working.
