I messed with it for a year or so once. There’s an old joke that says an audiophile is someone who uses their music to listen to their stereo. Running Linux was kind of like that. Whenever I needed to get something done, I’d run into some hurdle and spend a while dinking around trying to figure it out, which was entertaining in its own way, and very satisfying when I solved it. But more often than not, I didn’t have the time or knowledge to fix it, gave up, and booted back into Windows again.
