No, that's a hypothesis, one amongst many, with no evidence provided.

This would be more convincing if I hadn't lived through BSOD... I mean Windows 95.

It blows my mind that on Linux I can pin the taskbar to the left side and it works out of the box. Windows, aside from somehow losing that basic functionality, won't even install because it requires an internet connection and doesn't even have drivers to use my wifi or Ethernet that the installer can use.

How did this happen? How did Linux, of all things, become easier?
