What do you guys think about Ubuntu on windows 10, any first impressions?

I wanna try it out coz my new Laptop comes pre installed with 10 and installing Ubuntu is kinda very problematic in high end laptops according to a little research I did.

    It can sometimes be a problem but when you enable proprietary drivers usually they work fine

    Idk, never had problems with installs on modern laptops so yeah. wouldn't ever use windows myself so can't really give an opinion on that :P

    Just try it. Easily enabled by going to add Windows features.

    There's some networking problems. Like if you're downloading some big files it gets stuck in the middle

    If you're curious about coming to the dark side you can always make the installation for Ubuntu on a USB stick, boot it and use 'Try Ubuntu' it's exactly the same as installing it and it never saves files to your PC, unless you make it...

    Also a noon Ubuntu user (1-2) years and may be wrong, currently dual booting 7 and Ubuntu 16 on my lenovo w530 and it is super fast!

    personally i think its a better idea to run both as separate systems.

    hey guys, thanks for all the responses

    lemme add some more nitty picky details, while live booting from USB:

    - initially trying to dual boot, got error that processor core 03 went into NMI watchdog : softlock for 23s

    - after disabling win 10 fast boot, that error disappeared and now I'm stuck with a new error : Unsupported splx structure

    any experiences on this? any help would be greatly appreciated :)
