    Windows is all I've ever known. I'd really like to get into Linux though. Lot's of cool stuff going on there all the time.

        Well, those are project boards, so you got to write code somewhere. :P

          Initially it comes with a ARM build of Debian called Raspbian, but now there's several third-party builds for newer Pi hardware versions that include even Windows 10 :X

    I still prefer Linux in general because it's customizable, and as of late - is gradually becoming gamer-friendly (but I do do other stuff besides just play games). However, I'm still stuck with having Windows on another partition just because the majority of popular on-the-market games and applications are still written only for Windows.

    I'd like to learn Linux more, but I'm most comfortable with Windows 7 for now. It's the most "user-friendly."

      There are some relatively "user-friendly" distributions out there, like Ubuntu and its derivatives including Linux Mint.

    I like to think of the mac operating system as a type A OCD kind of system. (IMO) everything is neatly laid out and easy to find/ access. While everything is nicely laid out and easy to find/ easy to use, It's restrictive as to what it can do. (ahem, not a gaming system :c )

    The windows operating system is more of the type B ADHD kind of system. (again IMO) things aren't organized as well, and it takes more steps to get something done, but it can still be done (while acquiring many viruses along the way). While it may be hard to find things right away, thats not as important as the fact that it's not as restrictive in what it can do (gaming, not becoming satan's layer of infernal heat and death while live streaming, other stuff Im too lazy to think of).

    Linux is the Forever Alone guy.

      Well, that might be true in the consumer market, but in the enterprise IT scenario, Linux is pretty popular.

    I would say Windows, even though they attracts viruses.
