On Windows, things just worked Well everyones experience is different I suppose. I've run Linux since kernel version 1.1 and most things worked fine apart from printers which have always been its weak point. The Windows PCs I was using at work however couldn't last more than 2 or 3 days without a reboot if they didn't first crash anyway. >And even when the display worked, it looked dreadful, like a cheap 80s >home computer. That's probably not surprising considering Windows was Not in my experience. Yes, X could be a pig to get working but once it was it was fine. In fact I had full motion video running in linux on a 486 back in the 90s. Something Windows wadsn't even close to achieving except with special 3rd party hardware.
