I like being able to address over 3.350Gb of RAM to any application I want, thank you very much.), but for general use I'd never hesitate to recommend XP SP2 to ANYONE and EVERYONE, (or tinyxp, for those that want a really fast windows experience).
Plus, buying a mac pigeonholes you into using "apple approved" hardware and only being able to repair through "apple approved" outlets, which I find stupid and exploitative.
To be honest, the only reason why there's an iMac in my house is because the Mac OS is pretty tricky to carp up. You can clog it up through overuse and negligence, but you can really open 99.9999999% of carp off the internet and not have to worry if its going to carp things up on your pc, so I treat Macs as a sort of "PC for the less technically inclined".
IMO, my PC is probably form and function more pretty and wonderful than any mac i've ever used or seen.
Just my meaningless two cents.
I love you for saying this.
I hate you for saying that you love him for saying this Alice.

I'm running Windows Vista, it's terrible.
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Raikun - Aug. 05, 2008
I AM SO CONTREVERSIAL :}
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Guitar_Legend - Aug. 05, 2008
Running XP.
I just had an offer to upgrade to Vista for free but I declined,
I'm perfectly happy with XP. No complaints.
Mac sounds interesting but I'm more of a gamer, so..

For all the people that say that you like windows better than mac the is a program called cyder that lets you play windows games or you could just run windows on mac
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Seldia - Aug. 05, 2008
I've been considering dual booting XP and Ubuntu, but Im getting hardware compatability problems with Ubuntu straight away
It doesnt seem to like my USB wireless adapter, so there's not much I can do =/ Vista looks great but it's a suicide pill for PC performance and is a little too gltichy for my taste
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Raikun - Aug. 06, 2008
vista runs better on my machine than xp and linux :}
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Raineth - Aug. 08, 2008
I'll be getting a MacBook Pro this August just in time for school. So until that time... Windows. But I still voted for Mac.
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Siliva - Aug. 09, 2008
Windows. XP. I really don't like Macs in the least bit. And Vista sucks hard. I'll be holding out with this one as long as possible.
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - ChozenBlader - Aug. 09, 2008
Windows. I like Vista, but XP was better
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Katashi - Aug. 09, 2008
Currently XP. I'll be using Vista once I get my laptop, though.
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Nikku - Aug. 12, 2008
XP on my current computer, but the laptop i'll be transferring to soon will have Vista/Linux dual boot.
I haven't actually experienced that many performance or compatibility problems with Vista, but i've been interested in Ubuntu for a while and really want to give it a try.

I've been forced to use Ubuntu when I accidentally partitioned my whole HDD, removing Windows. It's nice, but not knowing too much terminal restricts what you can do with it. Plus, you're forced to use mostly open-source programs, which could either be helpful/better or a pain in the carp to use.
I'm using Windows XP, at the moment, but modded it to make the UI look similar to Mac. I'm happy with it, as it's easy to use.
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - rkayd - Aug. 23, 2008

RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Grey - Aug. 27, 2008
Windows. Mac sux.
Seriously, I don't really care which is better. I use a Windows.
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - James - Aug. 27, 2008
I use Window's because all the Mac CP's I've seen are really expensive.
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Spaceman - Aug. 27, 2008
I run XP SP2 at home, but I really want a MacBook Pro. I'm also learning Unix for programming at college.
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Superstar♪ - May. 02, 2011

RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Justaway - May. 02, 2011
I have been using windows since childhood and now I am very used to it so I dont think I will be opting for Mac at all

RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Electric - May. 02, 2011
I use Windows, That's the only thing I have, I have Windows XP. My dad has a Macbook Pro, I'm pretty used to both, but my computer is a Windows Desktop. I am quite happy with it. I have Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection, so that's a lot of amazing software. So yeah, pretty proud of my 6 year old, amazingly fast, not even upgraded once Windows.
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - To - May. 02, 2011
I've since dumped Linux, and now just stay with Windows 7. So much easier.
RE: Mac or Windows What Do You Use?? - Xlr8 - May. 02, 2011

No serious, I have a windows seven laptop. I use android for my phone, and have that dual-booted with Windows Phone 7. I also have an application that can run Fedora. This, and I have Mac- OS dual booted on my PC, don't ask me how, and bam.
