so what?  PC Gaming sucks.  Why?  Incompatibilities between this game
and that Direct X version.  hardware that isn't up to par with game X.
'I don't have enough hard drive space to install this game' and 'Where
did I put that disc?  Why do I need to put the disc in the drive again?
Copy protection what?'

These are the problems I have to deal with when my friends and family
try to use the PC as a gaming platform.  I tell them I don't want to
hear it anymore and to buy a console.  My father has all of them (all
the consoles).

I think this is the point I was making but I dont' quite understand what
you're saying.

I agree.  If your only purpose for a 'computing device' is to play
games.  Don't use Linux.  and don't use a windows PC either.  If you
want games on windows, buy an Xbox.
