What's this?

Not Microsoft, Not Apple. Sounds good to me!


But seriously, it might not be good for you. I built a PC and put the $100 of Windows license elsewhere. I've just become fed-up with the "[Only what we offer] Just Works [Only Our Way]" mentality of the major tech companies lately; most Linux distributions have gotten to the point of "Just Works [but you can change how it works if you want, but sometimes a random piece of software doesn't because of an annoying choice by an annoying company]".
