how can people stand linux anymore? i mean, my pc can dual-boot into windows 8, and linux ubuntu, but i only downloaded ubuntu to see what it was like yeah it's pretty cool, less overheating than i get when playing games on windows 8, but srsly how can you guys stand linux not supporting that many software or games? no visual studio, unity, whatever. honestly, if linux supported more things, then i would so keep it. |
