Kind of like Verizon was hyping, for firefighters and first responders, on their 5G commercials in 2018?

Same here. I was just thinking that I have way more running computers now than I did in years past. But none of mine are running Windows now.

As someone who has used Windows, OSX, and Linux as a daily driver at different points, Windows was by far the most challenging to work with. Every week there was some problem.

In recent years, my company provided Dell with 32GB of memory running Windows would blue screen practically weekly. Most of the time it struggled to run more than one instance of an IDE. Windows finally crashed to the point that the only option was restore the OS.

I requested a different machine and have been running macOS with less memory. Have actually been able to run more IDE instances than the Windows machine would run. No crashes.
