I know, I tried to play some video tutorials from the blender.org site
in Windows and they just wouldn't play.  It turned out that they needed
divx codes and Windows did not include them.  Even though Windows Media
Player said it could play them.  I had no problems playing them under
Linux.  I just clicked and they opened and played.

After installing the codecs they still wouldn't play.  Dont even get me
started on what I had to go through to find the codecs.  Ultimately, I
had to go download a divx player.  Did I trust the site that I
downloaded it from?  well I did a little research but you can never be
absolutely certain . . .

These are the kinds of things that drive folks away from Windows
unfortunately. ;)
