So tired of keeping like 10 different ethernet dongles, 5 of one model and 5 of another, because half of the new laptops can't even connect to the internet with the windows install ISO due to lack of drivers.

Sometimes one of those 2 models will also refuse to work with the windows ISO, so ig fuck you if you're trying to install windows on more than 5 computers at the same time.

Oh and of course you still need to do the bypass even if you don't have drivers for the network card. Ig also fuck you too if you don't know about it, because you're never gonna install windows on that laptop.

    Welcome back to the Win95/98/SE/XP era. Where everything old is new again.

    Actually insane how far we've regressed in Windows land

    It really feels like Ubuntu in 2008 whereas current Ubuntu or any other Linux Distro is infinitely easier to deal with nowadays.

    MS has just fumbled the ball at every turn.
