Windows 10 did the unthinkable for me. It made my house Windows free since 1998, in 2020!

Now I have two Ubuntu 20.04 laptops - Toshiba SatellitePro and Dell Inspiron. Windows 10 broke the Toshiba touchpad and wouldn't upgrade from 8.1 without fits, seizures and loss of data. With Snap I was able to port most of my MS Office and other windows software.

TBH, Dell did have issues around the infamous Nvidia display drivers that would freeze the screen needing a hard reboot. But at least my laptops are able to bounce back to enjoy the rest of their natural life!
