      @scottalanmiller Not to mention you can get your Windows games to play under Wine, if they are GOG.... and even some Steam games also work under Wine. 🙂

        Well I'm only two months away from getting a gaming rig (I hope) so the idea would be one Windows 10 laptop (my HP Folio) and one Linux laptop (my HP Envy) and one Windows gaming rig (Zotac Magnus 970.)

          I've been happy with Windows 10... I just really wish they had copied part of RPM and made it easy to install applications via powershell. They could use the MSI packager to do most of it too.

            They have Chocolatey for that.

              True... but it would be nice to have it integrated and supported by Microsoft. And by supported I mean getting vendors to build that into their release.

                It's supported by all of the vendors that matters. Linux is different because the packages nearly all come from the OS vendor. Microsoft's closed source world can't do that. So the system can't easily be replicated in a similar way.

                  Not yet... I still haven't even figured out what the default desktop is... (It feels like Gnome 3 to me).

                  Whta is the KDE Connect?

                  Here's what the notifications look like:
