    I recently spent 3 days debugging the WiFi on my Windows PC because it wouldn’t connect to the internet at all through one of my satellites, and would not connect to certain domains (specifically Epic and Windows Store download services) from the base router. The problem ended up being fixed by assigning a static IP.

    I’ve spent tons of time fighting with all sorts of other weird problems in the past, often sound related. My wife’s work computer (a PC) refuses to do sound output over DP or HDMI, for example.

    Point being, Windows machines, due to the OS alone, are worth several hundred dollars less than Macs to me because they take so much babysitting and can break in weird ways at a moment’s notice.
