I don't run Linux as my main desktop OS for the same reason - drivers. It seems like you lose either way. I don't feel locked in at all with Windows though. Never have. With Apple, I feel locked into their hardware. With Microsoft? What am I locked into exactly?

I'm using Linux as my desktop system (including for gaming) and drivers situation feels OK. Unless you use some really weird hardware, Linux drivers aren't usually a problem. Especially with Intel being pretty open and AMD opening things up (GPU wise), it's getting even better.
