The best upgrade to Windows...

It's not entirely wrong that the best upgrade to Windows is called Linux, but even companies which have supported Linux in the past are losing their enthusiasm. And it doesn't look like a coincidence when this happens at about the same time as the game engine they use is bought up by Microsoft.

And then, whenever you hit problems, the response from all and sundry is RTFM!

Unfortunately, nobody has actually written the manual. You get a mass of uncertain fragments on a Wiki somewhere.

That's an American company

If you want to see this stuff being done properly. linux support, documentation, and all, I commend to your attention Squad, the Mexican publishers of Kerbal Space Program. My personal network of acquaintances overlaps with software engineers in several companies, talented people, and most of them outside the USA.

It's possible that a lot of the people at Microsoft and Lenovo can talk to computers.

Perhaps they haven't noticed that we're not computers.
