I'm a Windows user, have been since before day one long ago when the public first got a glimpse of Windows 1.0, but I don't go around attacking Linux users, there's no point - I just can't tolerate the kernel nor the distributions based on it, that's all, and that's all I have ever really stated.
Personally I think Linux sucks - there, I finally said it here at the [H] but that's my personal opinion of it and in no way slants the users if they are capable of tolerating it.
The main point being: if <your operating system of choice> does everything you require it to do then what the fuck do you care what anyone else thinks about your choice of using <your operating system of choice>? For me, that's Windows, for you it seems to be a Linux distribution of some kind, and so on for others with their own choices.
"Can't we all just get along..." to quote a rather infamous gentleman accused of speeding along a California highway at claimed speeds in excess of 160 MPH on flat terrain in a Hundai loaded with 4 passengers that couldn't go that fast downhill in a tornado then having the shit kicked and beat out of him by some rather overly enthusiastic L.A.P.D. officers so long ago.
Having a personal opinion and preference is fine, I don't have a single issue with your post. I prefer Cats over Dogs.
The point is both Windows and Linux have advantages and disadvantages as an OS, considering everything the playing field is fairly even. If someone feels the need to switch from Windows to Linux it is entirely possible, based around personal needs and preferences. Linux isn't as unfriendly to use as many would like to believe, in fact as stated it's very similar to OSX as there are a number of scenarios under OSX where the terminal using identical commands is absolutely necessary. If you believe you can use OSX, technically speaking you should also be able to use Linux.
