I'm trying to convert to Linux, it's hard though, I've used Windows from 1994.

My vote is Linux, all the way, I don't get any silly error messages in that, and if I do, then I'm in big trouble.

Windows XP is crap! Crap! We think you're a moron so we refuse to show you the whole control panel unless you find this small link on the side. Oh yes, and unless you buy XP Pro you can't join a domain. POS. I set up a domain controller on a Win2k Advanced Server box and my computers are the only ones who can join it because all those crappy Dells that the rest of my family has all run Win XP Home.

You dualboot Linux on an XP machine? That sounds impossible considering that knowing Microsoft, Xp would pop a silly box saying that, "We have detected crap on your machine, it is now being deleted so you can have the full enjoyment of only using Microsoft products"

I use Windows XP Professional. Personnanly I have never used Linux. I also hate Macs... There evil. That Apple is scary... Also some babies might think it was a real apple and bite the computer. lol... Ok that was a joke. hehehe...

I like Windows XP because its easy to use, you can run most software and play most games on it and I like the design. I like the blue and the start menu is cool.

I am no Microsoft Monkey. You Mac Apple.

See we can all play the name game.

I just haven't used Macs as long as I have used Microsoft. I have Macs at School at home I have a PC with Windows XP. I prefer the look of windows and I would choose it over Mac anytime. I like the set up Windows has more than Macs. Maybe I would like Macs to if I used them as much as PC's. There are lots of programs and games that are not compatible with Macs so I like Windows since its more compatibles and can do everything I want to do and more.

Macs are much more reliable than PCs and tend to run the software they have better. They also have better graphics capability and are commonly used in graphics corporations.

Yeah but thats it they can run the software for Macs good. I like to use Microsoft Office for typing and printing papers and stuff and thats Microsoft software. They do have a mac version but I am using the Microsoft Office 2003 Beta 2 and its wicked cool.

A typing program is a typing program to me. I actually dislike the Office series (though I use it) because they have too much auto-formatting that occasionally gets in the way of stuff I have to do.
