One of the many reasons I gave up on Windows many years ago, and never looked back. ;-)
I have my grump list for Linux, too. Tried to install it once on an HP laptop, and the installer crashed with some long error message in hex. Like a good boy, I posted a bug report on it on the distro seb site. One of their devs closed it the next day because I wouldn't attach a remote debugger to it.
The Ubuntu printer install isn't any better than Microsoft's. I wonder what it is about printers. I can plug in USB drives, internal drives, all sorts of things, and they just work.
Even when it's working, the simplest things fail. I learned to never queue a second job until the first one is completely finished, else it botches up both jobs.
It's not like it's a weird printer, either. It's an HP LaserJet, fer chrissakes.
