Yea, I see what you mean. I definitely prefer the way that linux handles drivers.

From my experience, not too many people have had driver issues with the newer versions of windows, but I could have just gotten lucky there. I find that most non tech savy people don’t care if they have the latest driver or if it contains spyware or any of that. Most of them don’t know what a driver is, so they just plug it in and if it works they don’t care how or why.

I try to educate when I can but some people really don’t care to learn. Thanks for your explanation, I totally understand your reasoning.
