man i remember those days when you had to go and find all the software you use from random sites and same with drivers, then having issues you can't figure out because of a outdated old driver vs Linux where you just get the latest stuff all in once place.

how do people on windows figure out what driver has updates? do you guys check the version installed and go to each manufacture to see if there is a new version>?

Now this is usually (but not universally) handled by windows update, but I too remember the bad old days of manually tracking down drivers.
