I started using linux in 1996. I've had a mac since 2010 - it just works, while my sound card would randomly stop working (pulse audio, whatever, I don't care anymore), and I even had to manually patch the alsa drivers manually (and write the patch) . I wish I could use Linux reliably for anything else than a terminal (and I do use it everyday at the office in a terminal ) , but it's just never worked well for me, in spite of my wanting it to work.

I'm a bit sad about Mthe whole thing : I want it to work, but it doesn't. I don't have the time to waste yet another linux evening, yet I can't resent the people who work on it for free, and understand very well that it works for some people.
