I use both Linux and windows, its a matter of preference. I have virtually no issues with Linux on my 13 yo computer, but, windows on my brand new lenovo I have issues with, mostly stability. I also recognize, being in IT, Linux isnt for everyone. GIMP is great, but, its not Photoshop. The extremely extensive rules and functionality in outlook is, to my knowledge, unparalleled. My SO had me install Linux on their machine years ago because windows needed too much maintenance to run smoothly. Linux just works on that machine and I havnt touched that computer since for any issue. Usually, most machines Linux works great. I will probably always use Linux for my personal machine, I prefer it.
But, Debra who cant find her program because the icon moved 2 mm to the left, or anyone who needs to coordinate calendar scheduling, or recieved more than 30 emails a day and needs them organized. Or managing 1000 + computers in a GUI interface to easily apply group policies and restrictions. Windows works great for that.
People are too hard up on one or the other, they have their place. Linux servers are amazing. Also I agree Mac sucks, interoperability and stability is all they have. Its crazy how much they are for what you get.
