There are pros and cons to every operating system. Being a network security analyst I know many of the geek details to many operating systems and I can honestly say that Windows is one hell of a resource waster.

HOWEVER, *nix hasn't seemed to have developed yet. At least in the last fear years you have WINE and other emmulations and a greater drive for people to develop compatibility with games and such. Unix is a nice system if you're doing anything that doesn't require a great deal of compatibility or requires a great deal of security. Windows is pretty much the opposite.

I hear people bash Windows all the time, but they don't consider things like the brilliance of developing a user friendly GUI for an operating system; or how far Microsoft has gone to develop cross-platform technologies. Though I'm not a huge M$ fan in general, I am not sold on *nix quite yet either. It still needs more development. You may not like M$ in general - or perhaps it is just a hate for their Windows OS product line, but before you go bashing Windows consider that many people use it for the simple fact that there isn't much that can challenge it right now.
