A better response might be "Sorry I only work with Linux" since saying get Linux is just going to lead to more questions.

Saying get linux will also lead to a whole deulge of questions about everything since it will be a new os
"But installing software is too hard in Linux"
Linux literally has package managers and user was searching for and downloading individual executables off the Internet before...
- open browser
- search program name
- skip ads and find real website
- locate download page behind more ads
- click on link for correct os/arch/version
- wait for download
- extract zip file
- open executable
- confirm run as admin or whatever
- accept terms in wizard
- unselect mcafee installation option
- wait for install
- done! couldnt be easier!
thank you bill gates for this great os!
brew package manager was something that really helped me to get back into a linux frame of mind when I'd been on a mac for a bunch of years. reluctantly installed it for some reason and it started taking over my system because so easy. gradually I started preferentially looking for stuff available on brew because of being able to upgrade all at once. and while brew is not entirely FLOSS packages, it is heavily so. eventually I was using so much FLOSS tools, and fighting all the time with Apple's dumb proprietary decisions, I thought, I may as well go all the way with this. Very happy with decision. :)
I have this great piece of software called Lindows that will fix your Windows problem. I guarantee it!
