    Do people still have driver issues on Linux? What hardware are people using? I’ve been using Arch literally since it came out. I can’t remember the last time I had any concern that the laptop I bought would run Linux, …actually I do remember, I had a laptop with a modem that didn’t work right off the bat (or ever since it was 2008 and never tried to make it work).

      Besides, some of the biggest windows laptop manufacturers make their laptops with ubuntu in mind already.

      If there’s any genuine problem windows users could have with linux, it’s the lack of executable installers. Or rather, the fact you need to beg your computer to move files into the program directory instead of being able to do so yourself. That’s why i still have windows on my gaming pc (but ubuntu on my smaller laptop)
