As a 20 year Linux user I really appreciate Dells support in proving the market exists. This improved support across all manufacturers.
I've recently acquired a HP Envy 13 2017 laptop with Windows preinstalled. I've really wanted to try Windows out, but after installing Google Chrome and Docker (1hr after starting it up) it stopped working - windows boot up into a blank black screen.
In a hurry I've downloaded Ubuntu 17.10, clicked yes and I had a working OS in 15 minutes time. With everything (suspend, broadcom card, USBC video,...) working out of the box.
Super impressed.
If you're a developer there's no UX reason to go Windows anymore.
