I have been running windows at work and at home since 3.1. I don't have these horrible problems that Linux fanboys moan and groan about. Linux has its uses. So does Windows.
Same, Been using windows since 3.1.
Had plenty of problems over the years but windows is predictable (in its faults i mean).
Its easy to set up (even more so since win 7) and well supported.
Theres also some Diamonds in the rough so to speak.
If you stick to the good versions of windows its always served me well.
I still run machines on Win XP and 7.
Still own 95, 98, NT and somewhere 3.1 on floppys!
But I wouldnt touch ME, 8, 10 etc with a barge pole!
Linux on the other hand is fast and pretty damn stable.
But user friendly and easy are 2 things it is not!
