people who argue that they cannot try alternatives because they don't "just work" Fair enough, but your argumentation still sounds like 'works for me so it's all fine' which is the main point I was addressing. I.e. it's not because you have less problems on linux that others do as well, and hence they could make a rather valid argument that they gave up trying. Which doesn't mean all people complaining like that are right of course. It's never so black/white.
