Microsoft doesn't get it.

I don't want to use Windows. I want to use my computer.

Windows and Linux are just tools. If one doesn't work, don't hesitate to pick another up and keep working.

I have a 4770/1060 machine. When windows 10 support is gone I'll be swapping over to Linux mint. I can assure you, I won't hesitate. The only reason I haven't swapped that machine is it'sy spare under the TV kids computer. And it's 6TB of games would need to be tweaked and I can't be assed to do it yet.
