    windows---->if you want a system ready to do anything including gaming.
    linux---->if you want to learn & need a stable system with very little gaming time.
    mac---->if you want to impress others & want a nice looking stable system again with little gaming time.
    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
    Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
    Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?

    Hi,

    I agree with whitestar_999, with additional comments.

    Windows: When there is a virus or security attack , you need to spend money or time. System performance gets slower day by day and one day you have to format your PC for sure.

    Linux: The learning curve is always high, you need to troubleshoot when there is any issue, and anyway Google is there to rescue us very stable.

    Mac: simple with style

    Linux rules!

    Regards,
    Paul

    Please mention the OS u use, after u make a post in this thread.

    this is to determine who loves to talk about linux and who loves to use linux.

    I just checked in stats of all the visitors on this forum for this year and 85% use windows and rest are linux and mac, a small percentage uses some other OS and a few come in using mobile browsers.

    If you are a novice and dont want to try hard on accesing your computer, then windows is the best. If you don't like microsoft or bill gates, then linux is best. Mac...hmm although good looking and impressive still not much likeable, at least by me.

    every one who opens a site is sending a request to the site's server to download pages & this request contains information about the OS & the browser you are using(referral i think).this information is there in the site logs.

    cookies are mostly used for tracking browsing pattern & session history,logins etc.the request send by browsers is different.
