alt Hacker NewsWindows has tons of problem, but you don’t see them. That is, you see the problems, but attribute them to bad hardware. It works like this:
Headset does not work on Linux: “This is crap, I’ll tell everybody I know to stay away from Linux!”
Headset does not work on Windows: “This is crap, I’ll tell everybody I know to stay away from these headphones!”

But invariably, the hardware does work on Windows. I can't remember the last time I had that problem.
