Thread says "Which operating system do you prefer?" and poll says "Which OS are you running?"...WTF DO YOU WANT FROM ME?
The fanbase in general sucks. All they know how to do is buy Apple products and bash Windows. IRL.
I like both OSX and windows to an extent, but windows wins based solely on compatibility.
P.S. I didn't factor in linux cause i have no interest in learning how to use it.
P.S.S. mac is not an operating system.

Expect to become very unpopular online with that attitude.
Which part? Average joe doesnt use linux, thats well known. Its hard to learn.
That excuse is so old, Linux is not hard to use.
Last time i had a go on linux i had to compile my own drivers and apps from sources. After following a few tut's step by step it still chucked out errors, it was difficult and time consuming. Yes it maybe easy IF all your drivers are included and the apps you need are on the install/uninstall manger, but for me they wasn't.
I use my computer for internet browsing and music mostly (as do most people), linux doesnt have a good flash plugin nor does it play mp3's out of the box.

Wait, what? You told me you're 18 :-\I am twelve years old and what is this.
I'll conceed on the drivers point but for apps, .rpm and .deb or apt-get will take care of all your problems. Linux plays MP3's out of the box with about 10 seconds worth of setting up time. It's all automated too so I dont see your argument.
I cant bare most Linux distros, xorg is a complete mess and just crap. The alsa audio drivers are a pile of crap. It's just crippled by an open source community that would rather argue about the proper way to do something than actually fix it. It's too far down the line to be fixed now imo. I stick with Windows, does what I want and I dont have to go and use a terminal or compile a program to get what I need.
You dont agree with my about compling apps? I did mean the very few that are not available in a easy to install .deb etc etc.
Edit: Am i getting flamed by people that agree with me that windows is the perferred os for everday use and linux is not ready for this, confusing?
