Thats an opinion.... Someone can like Macs and someone else can like Windows. It is all what one person thinks.

Everything. It's slow. It freezes a ton. It's had about 1000 different errors (some I swear it made up). I would slow down the internet. That's what my Mac does and it runs OS9.

OS 9 is pretty screwed up. OS 8 isn't as bad, but still is bad.

I like Linux's stability, which is why I use it as a server.  But, I can't stand not having Photoshop, 3d max, and games, so I use Windows XP Pro most often.  When configured properly, with someone who isn't an idiot using it, Windows is relatively stable, and relatively secure.

Windows is fast most of the time for me but strange things have been happening to my computer lately such as a black screen for no reason and the screen resoluction changed by itself.

It would probably be hardware-wise.

No, that's all software.

But I won't argue... it doesn't really matter.

The only problems I've had with Windows were from me doing stupid stuff.

My dad's been working with Windows for a LONG time, and never had it crash where it wasn't his fault.
Title: Linux, Macs Or Windows?
Post by: RandomDude18 on September 02, 2004, 03:31:35 pm
What kind of stupid stuff? Oh and keep in mind linux uses the same hardware as windows alot of the time if your using Suse or mandrake.

My friend has Linux....he said that it is alot more complicated then Windows

Well it is probably the distro he has. Myr has SuSE and says its easyer to use than windows for him.

Linux is the best one

Mandrake 10.0 - Is the best for Linux Users (Hardware Friendly and very compatible)

Fedora Core 1 and 2 - Best for mainly servers.

SuSe 9.1 - For past Windows users that need to get used to Linux (hardware friendly, RAM Eater)

Red Hat - More for Experienced Linux users and Most versions for Server Bases


I enjoy using MDK and Suse

You told me that you had that same problem with all the linux distros you've used.
