    By this standard, Windows isn’t ready either. I use Mint, Windows and Mac interchangeably at work, and of the three, Windows is definitely the one with the most unpleasant surprises: computer slowing down for no apparent reason, printers disappearing, updates forcing you to reboot in the middle of something…

    Mac is fantastic if you don’t mind feeling like your computer doesn’t belong to you.

      Yeah. It’s not that there’s never a surprise on Linux. The interesting thing from about the last year is that the surprises are nicer and less frequent than on Windows.

      This user’s mouse issue is a hilarious example - is they gained new compatibility, without any effort, but it took a week to settle in.

      I’ve never had something on Windows go wrong that nicely. Lol.
