    What do you mean “install it?” You install programs ONTO windows. Windows is already installed. It’s literally how you buy the computer. Have you ever even used a computer?

        Hilarious that’s still a thing. Back in the late 90’s and early 00’s, I had a buddy that would format and reinstall Windows and all his games and applications religiously, once a month. Seems like something would have done about this after all these years.

      I bet there’s a strong correlation, at least among we olds, between the number of times one has installed Windows and the likelihood that they are now a Linux user.

      That’s how we know that Linux is easier to install these days, for one.

        I could see it. I wonder if it also depends WHICH windows variants you’ve installed and how many times. I, for one, have installed windows 98 probably high hundreds of times.
