I just setup a new laptop. Straight from the store, never been turned on before.
First thing in the Windows installation is a step called "something went wrong". Not even kidding.
MS is slop, with or without AI.
The first thing I did was install linux (alongside). About a year later, the windows died on me without warning and irrecoverably. I guess I Should have wiped windows in first place.
This PC wasn't for myself. The user only needs it for webmail and other browser stuff, but still insisted on it having Windows and MS office.
It seems to work fine now, but I guess I will see it again soon enough.
Love that about all the big names. My father always buys Apple stuff, because "it just works™". Gave me his old iPad, I tried to factory reset it the official way. Didn't work, didn't give me any clue why it did not work, because "that just never happens". In the end some Linux command line magic and a cable did the trick 😂. Such work, much wow.
