Re: Nice idea, but...

Your car analogy is great. I've pretty much migrated totally to Mint Cinnamon 15. Only problem I've had was my older A/V receiver wasn't passing a 1080 signal thru and the Nvidia propriety driver would not remember what resolution I wanted. I just plugged it straight into the monitor and used the spdif/optical out. It recognized that my audio input had changed, and ported to it. Had to read a short little tutorial on the Mint forums to setup my Brother wireless printer, boom it worked. Cheers to all. Well except for some of idiots.

Win 8 haters are just scared of change, say MS bosses
