Sure, there were off editions that were weird and unpleasant

You could just say ME.

But I'm curious, have the issues you've described made you consider leaving Windows?

Oh, I did. I ended up installing Linux mint and used it on my personal machine for about six months before re-installing windows. I would still be using Linux, I liked it a lot, but I found I had a lot of trouble getting multiplayer to work between my daughter and I. Gaming is 98% of the way there, but that 2% is really annoying and it's most of what I use my personal machine for. I'm sure I could have figured it out if I'd had a solid 12-36 hours to fine tune configs and Google hyper specific issues, but I just don't have that. I'm confident I will return to Linux in time, but Windows still has the edge in terms of out-of-the-box gaming, sadly.
