> At least my Mac recognizes and uses a second monitor when I plug it in, unlike the bloody Fedora 19 box that I use at work. And don't get me started on that second graphics card that the system can't figure out how to use! And the wifi Just Works(tm), unlike the Ubuntu laptop that I had before that.
Yes, please, let me spend time fixing distro BS instead of, you know, working.
I don't remember any time when Wifi worked out-of-the-box in my previous Linux laptop. It worked if I did things manually (wpa-supplicant and stuff), the NM widget? Never worked and made things harder
Another issue: opening and closing the lid doesn't have a consistent result, and sometimes it just keeps the laptop running.
This is for the basic functionality, and sometimes even things that worked before stop working.
Older distros had to be more manually configured, but when that was done it was good to go, today it is even harder to shut down the non-working stuff.
So yeah, it's Mac for me from now on. Recovery from Time Machine needed some "Linux style hacking" once, but apart from that it's a breeze
You can write a udev rule for that
