Linux is better than Windows, but people just doesn't know and doesn't use it. The only bad thing that Linux has is that you can't run .exe files, and that really sucks. On the other hand, Linux doesn't block like Windows, and if an application is blocked, you can just open a little program, that makes the mouse cursor an "X", and then you click on whatever you want to close. It will close in less than 1 second. Windows stays tens of seconds to close something when it's blocked. And another good thing is that Linux is free! There are more good things that Linux has, and Windows hasn't, but I can't write them all right now.
If I could run .exe files on Linux, I would definetly use it instead of Windows.

Good news dude, but I'm sure it can be fixed.
