I think most Linux users are a bit touchy about the divide between "getting things to work" and "learning new ways of doing things" because the former is about drivers and things that are the Linux ecosystem's fault while the latter is taste.
- lucb1e 12y ago> the former [getting things to work] is about drivers and things that are the Linux ecosystem's fault I don't really understand what you mean here. Are you saying all Linux issues are either driver issues or issues due to the open source mindset (the ecosystem) of Linux? > while the latter [learning new ways of doing things] is taste. (If I understand you correctly...) I think it's what you're used to more than taste. I had issues the first few weeks, but that wasn't because I prefer Windows, it's because I was used to Windows. Taste is sometimes defined by what you are used to, but not always. Music is a good example: we don't always like what we are used to or heard in the past, oftentimes our taste in music is completely different from what we have been exposed to the most.
