For me with windows 10... I spent about 2 hours trying to get it to install on my new machine while it continued to fail due an issue with it recognizing my nvme drive complaining i did not have any sada drive... in about 20 minutes after being very frustrated i downloaded ubuntu and installed... I spent the next 20 minutes installing lutris and the sims4 so my girls could play... so about 4 hours later... 40 minutes of which was to get linux installed with wine and playing video games with a then pretty nice nvidia 1080 ti graphics card... and bonus i can play sc2... i guess i don't see why people still use windows?
