Yer I agree... Windows is by far the OS of choice. I'm not biased towards either, like hardware: I go with whoever meets my needs. I am primarily a gamer and dual boot Windows and Linux. Linux performs worse in every game than Windows, Linux is nowhere near as easy to use as Windows and quite frankly, Linux is nowhere near as satisfying to use as Windows. I agree that Linux is more customisable but Windows does the job perfectly. It has a huge database, XP is rock solid and performs excellently. All these Windows-bashers should take a good look at the industry: if Linux truly was a better platform, game developers and software devlopers would release Linux versions first.
