I play games that don't play well with Linux. Sims 1 & 2 are just straight up broken.

So my Linux PC is actually my WinXP retro gaming PC but Linux is dualbooted for when I want to do more modern stuff on it.

XP is a fine OS

Only issue is lack of V Sync for 2d games and the desktop. Which is why it would've been nice for Linux to be able to run the Sims 1
