shaldengeki1405241473 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2004 Windows works well enough for me that I haven't found a reason to switch to Linux yet. I mean, I've heard it's good and all, but I'd have to have my computer infected with dozens of viruses due to Microsoft's incompetence in order to be convinced to switch to Linux.

CoolBradG 0 Report post Posted December 30, 2004 I have XP and love it! I used to have ME which was really bad! It crashed and got Worms and Viruses so easily. XP has never crashed for me yet and I love love it! I like the User account and fast switching in XP. Thats really nice. XP is the best OS ever I'd say after using a Windows ME computer for 4 years.

I hate to tell you this but it isn't. Admittedly it is alot better than the other Windows versions but it still crashes periodically (I see you said yours hasn't yet which is very strange, how much have you used it?) and often gets spyware etc. Although I don't use it I still firmly believe that the best OS is linux (haven't decided on the best distro yet) mainly for it's stability/security.

rozalia 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2005 My newest computer has Microsoft Office Professional XP though I can't really tell the difference between Professional and Home. I was disappointed when I first downloaded it in because some of the microsoft programs were missing (i.e. microsoft front page). Then I had to dig around the house for my other Windows CD's and install the programs that the package didn't include. I have also used Windows 2000 with NT Technology; not bad. I can barely remember how Windows 1995 and 1998 works, due to my bad memory. =_=I agree with shaldengeki on the fact that he hasn't switched to Linux because Windows works fine with him/her (sorry!). And yes, I have heard of the pros of Linux (as well the cons) and may consider switching to it in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know a lot about Linux's free software, but Mac OS X comes with some great software. iLife is awesome and if you buy a Mac mini, then you can get iLife, Quicken, and a few other cool applications.
