Linux and derivatives would have my support if games could be installed and played as easy as in Windows. I must admit its an awesome development environment though. _________________  |

Lex Luthor: WRONG! They can be. I know Snoble has it, and he's told me all about it, so you may want his clarification, but if I remember correctly, there is a program or something that allows you to run Windows programs. Not completely sure about that though. And besides, Linux has the most kick-ass mascot. GO TUX THE PENGUIN! |

I've only ever used Ubuntu and that's the most user-friendly one!

Several apps can be used in Linux to run Windows. The most well known is WINE, however even that doesn't have support for *all* programs. It covers a good majority, though. And also, I only have Linux (Ubuntu distro) on a CD. My parents won't let me dual-boot it  |

Windows, Mac's way of doing things is so... sloppy. If I click on the expand button, it should fit the whole page, not be off by f***' 4 inches left to go or have half the page off the screen due to it being the size of the Sun.

Windows, simply because I can play games at high-speeds with no problem. Mac, on the other hand, makes the games I play on it lag a lot, so I can't really enjoy the game at all.

It's fine to bump topics like this as long as it's contributing.

I've always had Acer computers in childhood, but I had a Macbook Pro last year (until brother completely mangled it by surging the system
 ), I installed Windows 7 on it. I used to hate them until they allowed Windows Dual Boot. ^-^ Apple has way better customer support than most computer manufacturers. Anyways, Mac all the way now.  _________________ 3DS Friend Code: 1864 - 9376 - 5058 Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/id/spying189 Skype: spying189 |

I prefer Windows simply because I couldn't play most of the games I do have on Steam.

Windows, I actually still use XP...
The reason? Macs support VERY LITTLE program wise, and as for the issue of viruses... FIREFOX AD BLOCK LITE FOR THE WIN. _________________

Partition your Mac and you won't miss out on anything. I'm very satisfied with my Mac, but I respect those who use PC.
