Heh, exactly. I bought an amazing all-AMD laptop this summer and its 2TB SSD and 32GB RAM still lie on my desk right next to it. I'll get to opening it up and upgrading it and then will proceed to try and make it my main machine with Linux, including for light AAA gaming and main gaming machine for everything that's not AAA -- console emulators, MAME / arcade emulators, Steam Proton, you name it.

(Well, for programming too of course but a 6c / 12t mobile CPU might not be good enough for a main dev machine. We'll see.)

So yep, my sentiment is exactly like yours. I'll start slowly but seriously work towards ridding myself of Windows forever. It has been on a downward spiral for far too long to ignore anymore.

Linux is not all sunshine and rainbows either but at this point I am willing to take the plunge and create my own Frankenstein monster of scripts and workarounds so that it can work perfectly for me. Plus, if more people start doing it, desktop Linux will eventually improve (lol; but who knows?).
