Well there goes my linux run. One hour and a half looking at how I install chromium dev channel.

You want to know why it will NEVER be the year of linux ? Because on windows you fucking download it, click on it and it fucking works.

Into the fucking garbage this piece of shit goes.

repost;
I'm looking for a HDD Switch. Western shops have failed me, what's a good place to buy one from China?

Also could you recommend me Chinese SSDs, please? In my 3rd world they're still expensive, including less or around 100gb ones.
