    In sorry, but they’re kind of right. Windows is HELL ON EARTH to support. Fixing issues is a guessing game because no one really knows what’s wrong, its garbage driver enumeration system means a year down the line a users monitor/headset/dock will magically stop working, restarting is a 50/50 shot of getting stuck on the spinning circle, I could go on and on and on.

    Within three months of starting that job windows was gone from every PC I owned.

      In a big corporate/ large enterprise environment, I’ve usually had few major problems with my windows laptops. It’s just always slow as balls because of all of the security shit they put on them. So these $3k laptops take forever to load or launch outlook and teams.

      I always dream of a Linux laptop, but then realized they’d butcher it all to hell and make it useless with security policies and tools. I can’t imagine using a Linux machine at work where I didn’t have the ability to “sudo” anything.

      That’d be more frustrating than windows tbh.
