    So here is the operating system war.
    Post your opinions on all of the provided operating systems, or any other ones you know of.

    For me, Macs are the worst computer ever made. They are horrible in all ways I can think of. First of all, any online download is NEARLY ALWAYS for PC only. So that eliminates so many good things. Second, Macs have limited access to certain things that a PC has complete access to. Even though Macs get way less viruses, that doesnt impress me. I dont get viruses, I'm just a smart PC operator. For me, the order of operating systems is:

    1. Linux
    2. Windows(PC)
    3. EVERYTHING ELSE
    4. Mac

    Linux is my #1 for one reason, it is superior for gaming. It can support better sound, graphics, and effects.

    I mainly work on PCs and Macs. I have a PC for personal uses and at school I use a Mac for most of my classes. I'm in Graphic Design and most of the industry uses Macs but with Mac being able to run both Windows and it's own OS...who knows?

    Hmm... well, the best operating system to me would be Windows. Despite having grown up on Macs (really old Macs), Windows is far easier for me to control, and I can generally find everything on it (well, at least the one I'm using). Also, considering that despite my school makes us work with Macs, I seem to get very lost on the Macs, even though I know where mostly everything is on them as well. Still, I think it's just how the Mac is set up, and how attached I've become with Windows that makes it seem really hard to use.

    Linux... I've never really used one before, though I have heard tons of good things about it... The only thing is that I seemingly can't find a computer store that sells them, all that they do sell is Macs and Windows... :/

    Macs I truly don't like any more. Simply because of facts already stated, I get lost on them really easy, despite knowing where everything is. I also dislike that they come with only single click mice and not left-and-right click one... Also, considering that it's hard for me to tell which program is running (considering that hitting the "Close" button in the upper corner of the window doesn't turn the program off), I could be using valuable memory that I could need for another program...
