"Windows 10 is faster at installing too."

That is hilarious - while you are of course wrong - Windows Update isn't fast at anything, and the installation requires 32GB of disk space and uses 20GB. I don't care if Windows is optimised by the Patron Saint of Speed, that is never going to install faster than an OS that needs 10% of that.

The other factor to consider is that Windows Update locks you out of your PC with pointless full screen blerbs that tell you nothing useful. So you're sat there waiting for 15-30 minutes wondering what it's doing. Linux on the other hand, lets you use your PC through the entire update process and never forces a reboot - do it when you're ready (just like the updates).
