hello, i have always wondered which operating system is the best. windows boasts about thw new windows 7 but linux has always been a dominato and mac's sleek interface is loved by many. people say they preffer linux because of its features, others say the preffer windows because of its wonderful program capabilaties, others just love mac because its what they grew up with. what do u think?

I have all 3 OS's on my iMac and I'm liking my Mac more. Linux is pretty neat, its free and good software are included free. I use Windows XP for gaming, and that's all.

I'm a Mac fan. I used to have Windows( I think XP) and it was constantly slow and frezzing up, even with virus software. I wanted to try Linux, but not being real good with computers, and hearing that you need to know what you're doing with it sacred me away. Macs, on the other hand, just seem easy to do what you want. Viruses don't do anything to them (to my knowledge), and they look cool :)
What I don't like abou them(hardware related) is if one thing goes down You either have to buy a new comuter, or pay a great deal at the Mac store to get it replaced. Same thing with upgradability.
Now I have heard of people using Mac OSX on a PC, but I think you need a lot of processor speed and RAM. And know your way around computers real well.

Well I'm sure about linux, but I know that mac is more fun to use than windows. Macs have this feeling as if you're just a pro at everything you do. It's more easier to operate things like for example, making a html file, all you have to do is set the format and what not, but on windows you have to write the code. To make it easier, if you like art, movies, music, and/or studying(?), mac is the computer you should get. For programming and games, well windows is better.
