| THANK you! I'm tired of the cult of perfection surrounding frankly middling proprietary operating systems. - Every mac I've ever used has had Launchpad UI bugs requiring me to try several times to launch things. - OS X has woeful graphics drivers, to the point where Mesa is doing better. - My Air got erratically unusably laggy until I finally gave up on it. - My MBP will occasionally forget that it has any integrated input devices, requiring me to either find a USB keyboard or reboot. - Microsoft still hasn't resolved their graphics driver stability situation; blue screens are far from a relic of the past in my experience. These are anecdotes, yes. Sure, some (rare) people might have a perfect experience with OS X or Windows. But the point is, free operating systems don't have a monopoly on driver and spitshine issues. |
