    I’ve worked exclusively with Linux servers since 2002 and exclusively Linux desktop since 2004 and I’ve come to the point where I prettyuch refuse to touch windows for fear it will infect me somehow.

    I know most people don’t know any better but it’s insanity to me that anyone still pays money for windows. It’s a scam, no other words for it.

    Don’t even get me started on Windows servers. It’s just sad to see how much money is spent on a company that has so litte focus on quality.

    Even the online services suck. Dear God Microsoft, would it kill you to understand that people might have gasp TWO tabs open with your teams “app”?

      It’s the professional software that’s lacking in Linux, and that’s the only reason I keep a Windows machine around. For music production, video production, design work, photography and so on, Windows has good commercial software that is well established in these professions.

      But for most people, including gamers, Linux is a very good option right now.
