After having lost a lot of time over the last few weeks (on top of a heavy workload) trying to get a virtual Windows guest running smoothly on an ArchLinux host I came to the realisation that over the last two decades I have lost countless hours of my life messing around with command line options, pouring over internet articles to deal with some form of error code or another, going into IRC chat rooms for assistance with one matter or another, etc., just to resolve problems or to try to get things running almost as well as under Windows.

I have learnt a lot about computers and computing in the process, and on the plus side Linux allows you to do a lot of things you cannot under Windows. But looking back on the time I wasted battling with things to get them to work or fix problems I feel sad about the many hours lost - surely I could have put that time to better use.

But
it
is
time
for
me
to
say
goodbye
to
Linux.
Wiped
all
my
drives
clean
and
went
for
a
fresh
Windows
10
install.
Everything
just
works
and
my
life
is
easier.
I
should
have
done
this
a
long
time
ago.
