Pfff - some use Windows because they've much important things to do in their lives than to invest time and energy in learning or using Linux.
This is precisely the lazy, self-entitled attitude I'm talking about. You had a need (linux miner) and refused to meet that need by taking a few hours to set up a linux miner. Thus, you missed out on several weeks, if not months, of mining MNX at much more profitable rates.
This isn't about Windows vs Linux. This is about doing what you need to do to get things done.
