Default My Windows 8.1 is still running great and rock solid.

You'll never convince the world that Linux is the better OS. Been there,
done that and it's a plain bitch to work with. Great for the geeks that
have the time to invest in playing with it but it can be a real time waster
for those that want an OS to "Just work".


There's nothing wrong with wanting something that works out of the box.
Millions of people are migrating to tablets for that exact reason. If
Windows ticks all your boxes, go with it, there's no reason to learn
something else just for the sake of learning it.

Bashing Linux doesn't make it better or worse, just less suitable for
your specific needs. The infrastructure that delivers our Internet
experiences is almost entirely Linux based, as are our mobile phones and
other modern living accessories. In a few years, our heating systems
will run it, along with our washing machines and fridges. The Internet
of Things is coming.

Desktop / Laptop computers are the last bastion of Windows and it serves
them very well. I have no issues with it.
