I never had anything NOT work on a laptop. I installed Linux on 5 of them.

    These days, that's pleasantly true :)

    15 years ago was a different story. You'd have about a 50/50 shot of your trackpad working, one in three that your WiFi would work, and if you were hoping for a working webcam, you should just forget about it.

    So even in modern times when you do an install and everything mostly just works, it still feels suspiciously miraculous.
