    Why couldnt she just install windows? Or use a virtual machine? How is her only option dropping out? It seems like she lacked even basic planning and problem solving skills and if it wasnt this that made her give up it would’ve been something else.

        I had a vm running in 2007 or 2008, but regardless she didnt even need windows for her classes. She just couldn’t figure out how to get her internet set up and could’ve just called verizon. Totally helpless and probably would have been thrown the first time she ran into a problem with windows as well.
