Windows? Really!

There are so many things that can go wrong with Windows (/r/n instead of /n,
NTFS isn¹t case sensitive vs Linux file system which is case sensitive,
etc). If you have to use a windows machine, then install a virtual machine
and then install Debian or Ubuntu and save yourself a tone of problems.

Windows; you should be ashamed of yourself ;-)

Yeah, I hate windows.
