'It just works' is not a phrase I've ever seen applied to the Windows 10 update process before.

While bricking updates for Windows are rare, the most infamous Windows update bug deleted all user data.

If you want stability, desktop Linux is now the best out of a bad set of options. If you need more software support, run Windows in a VM where it can't destroy anything important.

I used that phrase a bit-in jest.

That being said, Windows updates have a bunch of minor issues, but rarely result in these machine breaking issues that OSX has.
