I've been running Windows 2000 Pro since it was released. It has been solid as a rock for me... very stable.

Linux is a RELIGION, not an OS

Of the respondents to this poll,

10% are running Linux;
and only 8% are running Macintosh systems.
The impending arrival of Windows 7 promises to further reduce the market shares of the other two "rival" systems. I put "rival" in quotes, only because it is an amusing belief that the two competing systems, both continuing to shrink share, are believed to "compete."
Shows the power of faith: however illogical the premise, you will find zealots hotly upholding the creeds in the face of all reason.
Need to kill a few hours / days / weeks reading (some rather funny) material that "aligns" with your post?
Go to
Linux Hater's Blog.
Highly entertaining.

Using Linux
Linux is the choice regardless of distro. If you are using win98 you need help catching up to the present.

Most anything that ends with *nix, and then a couple others.
I do try to stay away from the Windows though.

OpenBSD and sometimes a linux distro (PCLinuxOS or Slackware). Very, very rarely do I get on internet with Microsoft systems.
