The last time I had to trouble shoot a laptop...

 

I did that to a smart phone once except I used a hammer. Solved the problem.

And do what? Switch to Linux?

 

No problem sir, we can fix your Wifi. Just read these 800 pages of documentation and then write your own code to accomplish a task that should take 5 minutes at the most. 

 

Obviously you're ignorant when it comes to Linux.  

 

Yea it's better to google search for several hours.  Try endless amounts of suggestions where none of them work including the company that made the operating system whose only solution to any problem is to reboot the operating system.  And then out of desperation post your issue on a NFL FAN FORUM.  Try more suggestions, none of which work.  And then add to that the knowledge, that when you do fix the problem, the company that makes the operating system will just break it again with another forced update, and the process continues.

 

Honestly the worst that will happen on Linux is I need to reinstall or change distros, which takes like 20 minutes and almost no effort.  You  also can boot into any distro live without installing it to make sure it will work.      

 

I haven't re-installed any of my Linux systems in years.
