--I use both, and I just last week started fooling around with redhat. I'd say they all have plusses and minuses, although I'd also say mac os is more more user friendly out of the box on that list of three. I haven't used osx yet though, so can't comment.

I'd also say real men are able to look at 'computers' as just being good tools, and different tools for different purposes. I have yet to see an adjustable wrench be able to substitute for the whole tool box. These OS neener neener flame posts and wars are beyond stupid. I wish the moderators would ban and delete them immediately on sight, and ban the posters if they persisted. All brands of computers are owned and used by all differering people's political belief structures and pronouncements of same, it's not one or the other, and to insist otherwise is called 'lying through your teeth" and 'trolling"..

I would like to second your motion.
All in favor?

I use a mac at home because that is the computer I know how to maintain well. At the same time, I can say with out a doubt, that Microsoft has made the best software that I have ever used. Their failures have been far outweighed by their successes.

But I'm no arm-chair CEO, when it comes down to it, I don't care how these companies are run because I know that someone will step up to fill in the void of user demand. I hold no allegiances or devotion to a plastic box of silicon. I just use it.

Many of these posts exist just to chaff someone's hide.
