I find your stupidity amazing.  Spreading FUD does not make Linux look
better than Windows and what you are doing is just telling lies and you
obviously have no idea what you're talking about.

Blaming an operating system for a hardware manufactures problem is
clearly the OS's fault.  I don't see you blaming Ubuntu because ATI
proprietary drivers don't play nice on Wayland properly now do I? I
don't see you blaming Ubuntu because you have to download a wireless
driver for a lot of Wireless cards, or run a wrapper to run the windows
version of the driver. Until the last year or so, and even then there
are many many *many* /many/ *many* that still require a driver because
they have no Linux support and /a lot/ *a lot* *I mean a lot* come from
companies that use some form of Linux in their routers so they clearly
have the ability to build the proper drivers.

I'm no Windows fan myself, but I am surely getting sick of people
talking shit when they clearly don't know what they're on about.

And just a heads up, most Windows hardware does not require a driver be
downloaded unless it's 1.) Not PnP (which is obviously Microsoft's fault
right?) or 2.) Is edge (which again is Microsoft's fault right?)

Just zip it with the FUD and stick to promoting Linux in a legit
fashion, don't be like Facebook and spread hypocritical crap when
everything has problems.
