I keep a dualboot system because of the current situation.
Linux for "real work"
Windows for gaming (no-frills setup) and music production (much easier and less clunky low latency setup, way more availability of free synths etc)
I absolutely adore Linux for everything it has done to my career but I cannot drop my Windows system yet.
- halbritt 8y agoI likewise run and prefer a Linux desktop and boot into Windows for the occasional gaming foray. Also, to run stuff like Fusion 360. I have to say that even on Windows, driver stability leaves much to be desired (for Nvidia in my case).
- kaybe 8y agoThe thing is, if you only boot into Windows occasionally, you'll have to wait for updates about every time you use it. That's pretty annoying and has actually stopped me from doing it at some point.
- EamonnMR 8y agoI don't think I realized it until you mentioned it, but I think I'm in the same boat with my dual-boot box. Doubly so because it's a laptop and half of the time I only have phone-teathered internet.
- fb03 8y ago> I have to say that even on Windows, driver stability leaves much to be desired (for Nvidia in my case). I agree. That is why I tend to leave my Windows box really bare. It has Steam with some 4-5 games on it and my Music Production Software. Every other endeavor is tackled in Linux.
