If someone asks for a software/OS recommendation, "get better hardware" is generally not the right advice.



Correction, I'm saying get worse hardware. :)

I just worry about people swearing off Linux forever when they can't successfully install Linux on their Microsoft Duo Surface that just released a month ago, and then they post about the horrible time they had with Linux. In the past decade I have never had any troubles installing Ubuntu on any computer I've owned. It is plug and play most of the time! But nobody talks about when things work just fine :)
