Windows is better than Linux

Fuck Linux.

I like windows because 99% of the time it ``just works'' and you don't have to read mans, google the fuck out of google for obscure error messages, or compile anything with gcc-4.6 and not gcc-4.7.  Sure, sometimes ubanto installs just fine on a custom box (i. e. not on a typical configuration for which Canonical tests without doubt, but onto something with a different network card).  Sometimes your favorite programs don't cause nouveau to hang and lock your computer.  Sometimes you get 100% performance on the first try without having to find and install firmware.  But every time I installed Debian or Ubuntu on a new computer at work, I had to do some fucking voodoo here and there, which usually took at least 1 hour before I could get to X and 2-3 hours afterwards.

I don't use Windows myself because I hate popular ``standard'' configurations and ways of working.  My typing speed is extreme, I rarely ever use mouse when programming, I hate [Alt]+Fn-style ``hotkeys'', I detest modal configuration windows that make configuration a PITA even in Windows 8.  If I could live with the ``standard'' being shoved down my throat, I'd ditch Debian and buy a ``genuine'' copy of whatever Windows is being sold now.
