Hey! c:

 

Here's a hypothesis:

 

Which do you think is 'better'

 

Windows, Mac or Linux? and why?

 

Happy debating!

You would have to define "better" very clearly for this age old and oft repeated chestnut to be valid I'm afraid.

 

I use Windoze unwillingly sometimes to flash/control/modify some tech such as phones, managed switches, specialist radios etc,

 

I use Linux ( Ubuntu) willingly and occasionally for some similar tasks.

 

I use Mac OS X willingly every day for video production, editing, compression, grading and a hundred other tasks.

 

I could not use one platform for everything.

Alex,

 

I'm a windows kind.

 

Your colors could use some more Violets

Mac.

• Best I've used for my studies. Art school student, do a lot of photography and design, works whatever way I want it to.
• Best I've used for web browsing and general media consumption. Never any fuss.
• Good enough for my gaming needs. I'd like more compatibility obviously, but a willing sacrifice to make for everything else it is.

I build software for all of them both natively and not. Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages from both an end user point of view as well as a technical standpoint; all of which are far too numerous to list out here for debate.

 

I used to cultivate a strong hatred for everything Apple. However these days I have chosen to adopt the same doctrine that I apply to programming languages - I shall not dislike a platform but instead seek to love it for its specific merits.

Apple products are nice but I'm currently sticking to Windows because half of my games can't be played on a Mac without a wrapper. I can't really say for Linux, since I've never used it, although there's probably compatibility issues that I don't want to mess with either.

 

@DefaultAlex, what do you prefer?

And random question: When's your birthday?

Well, I think that all of them are unique in their own way and are used for different reasons, but If I was to pick one, It would definitely be Windows. Actually until a couple of years ago, I really didn't like apple. It just seemed so.......shut down? Like you couldn't really do anything with it apart from what apple actually /wanted/ you to do with it you if know what I mean?

 Also my birthday is November 1st, I was supposed to be born on Halloween the day before but my mother refused to give birth to me When's yours? 

[vedisdragon]

Yeah, I know what you mean. Honestly I'm just too lazy to get used to a different system.

I'm March 15th, the day that Julius Caesar was assassinated.

I never liked the Romans much, Greeks all the way eyy

[the_assasain]

While I believe Mac and everything Apple is best, I have a windows desktop for it was cheaper...

I've worked with Windows at work for many years, but at home I mainly use my Mac.

I like the way on Macs the hardware works so well
