You know, I use Linux at work but use windows at home. I've been thinking of switching for a while. I think the thing that is going to push me over the edge is the difficulty that I have saving a file to my own god damned computer.
I love automatic backups to the cloud WHEN I CHOOSE TO USE THEM! I'm tired of Microsoft essentially holding my data for ransom, though.
I have a cheap laptop that I got solely for school to run their anti cheat Spyware for online tests. I hadn't turned it on since I updated it and it forced me to make a hotmail/outlook account or I couldn't use the laptop to take my test. Assholes almost made me late for it. Fuck microsoft.
Sorry I should have been more clear. I have mint linux installed. The speakers and the headset works. When I get a chance I need to work on gw2. It's the last step. Sorry for the confusion.
It runs without a problem via steam for me on Linux mint. I don't know how to do whatever setup steam does manually, but you can just launch it through steam and sign in with your anet account. (There's a config option to open the login window instead of using your steam account for login)
