Both have their uses.
I’m running Ubuntu Lucid Lynx. I used to upgrade to each new iteration as it came out, but I think from here on I’ll be sticking with the LTSs for the stability.
I have a Windows partition for games, but I don’t use it often. I run WinXP in a virtual machine for my school work because Windows-based apps and experience is pretty much required for my course. Once that’s done I’ll be deleting the virtual machine.
I think Windows is worth it if you play games or need to use specific, Windows-only apps. Especially Win7 – I’ve been quite impressed by it. Most of my computer use is internet browsing, media playing and image editing (raster and vector), and I’ve found that an open source O/S and software suits my needs perfectly.
Oh Father as I weep in thy receiving arms of thy Love
with your Son Jesus my guiding Shepard in whom I pray,
Thou art Beautiful, thou art Lovely, thou are Divine thy Father
May thy Grace and Mercies come upon thy children,
may they follow the Light of your Love brought thur thy Son Jesus.
May there innocence keep them in thy Loving care.
May thou keep us apart from the passions of the world
and set in the Passion of thy Lord Jesus Christ.
In His strong-hold thou does keep thee thru you Father God.
Thy tears fall at thy feet of thy Love with thy Son Jesus Christ.
That in there purity of true desiree an earnest plea that
thy children may follow into your care filled and loving arms
that all may truly know the Beauty of thy Perfect Love
In this is thy strength and Glory forever
Amen
Why?
Linux forever.
Asking this in R&S. I use both, my computer has two operating systems, windows and Ubuntu 10.04
What?? are you lonely? Nobody answers your religion comments , so you pander to the lowest common denominator? That’s OK bro, I get bored too. Ihaven’t ever had an apple/macintosh, but the next computer I get, will be . I hate the scam that microsoft perpetrates with their software game
W7
the only pay software i have.
I use Windows.
This is indeed a very religious question that goes to the fundamental relationship between each human and Mother Nature (or his God). As with most religious topics I try to dodge the question posed by answering what I consider a comfortable subset of the area of inquiry. To wit,
I do not have a main computer.
