      I have to use Adobe and a bunch of plugins for work, the second that shit runs well on Linux I’m ooouuuuttttt.

      Windows can suck a fat one.

        I virtualize windows for certain apps like Wendell does at level1techs. You can use Chris Titus windows utility to make a microwin11 image for your VM and install Adobe into there. This is a power user solution.

        Imo the Mac is technically cheaper than it’s ever been and a great alternative for a second PC.

      Im guessing if your pc isn’t good enough to fully run the program it would be slow as shit or something, and people would have a bad impression of it.

      So, you know, lets plaster ads for it all your computer instead. That’ll make a great impression!

        That didn’t stop them from making their God awful searchIndexer default to scanning all the disks way too regularly back then, including C:, even if it was the slowest laptop HDD on earth

        it straight out won’t install and/or work but does not properly keep track so tries again and again and rolls back again and again.

      I would be so pissed. Well, I’m already pissed, but currently and groaning and annoyed levels, not throw laptop against the wall.
