- Linux is as far from a gaming platform as ever.<p>- Hardware issues are major PITA, touchpads never work, when you have a convertible laptop, keyboard doesn&#x27;t disable when turning it into a tablet mode and so on. Not to mention audio.<p>- No distro has nice fonts.<p>- In my case, Ubuntu took exactly an hour before throwing an error at me.<p>I use Linux every day and I prefer it to Windows or Mac OS X, but take your pink glasses off, please.
