“regular daily system updates, virus scans, driver updates, malware scans”

Why do the people that know the least about PCs seem to be the ones that love to yell the loudest about how they think they operate?

I bear in my body and psyche the scars of Microsoft slavery for mor than 13 years. I know that experience.

I didn’t “yell”

I asked.

Well, people who only use one type of computer/OS tend to have a striking lack of knowledge and perspective about the others.

I use EVERY major OS -- Windows, OS X, Ubuntu, CentOS, BSD Unix -- EVERY DAY at work and at home.

I can tell you with authority that anyone who doesn't use a given OS daily has no idea what they're talking about when it comes to that OS. You have to use them regularly to really know them. Period.

And my own opinion is that they all have their strengths and weaknesses. I love 'em all, and I hate 'em all, depending on what I'm trying to do on 'em. I try to choose the one that best suits the task at hand.

My FR Profile page has details if you're interested.
