I wasn't gonna say it, but yeah... I've been using Linux exclusively on my personal systems for more than 10 years. Every time I have to use Windows, it's almost physically painful. How the hell do people put up with that crap?

I couldn't look the same at Windows after about two weeks on Linux. Seriously, Windows is THIS bad.
