Im not sure if your trying to say Linux is not comparable to Windows, but if that is your intention you need to do some more research...

By the way, what exactly is this post about anyway?

No, not bad at all. If you do any hacking or research, you will choose Linux. Definetely.
So, I must agree with all of you, there are too many such threads, and you said nonsense. Why do people who don't know anything about Linux or who never used it, say such things? That's public humiliation.

Sure it's linux that sucks?

Whats wrong with linux? I guess people are just jealous of such a stable, secure and efficient opperating system. I mean I guess if you get used to using such crappy software for all your life, anything good just feels like crap

Me personnaly, I enjoy have an OS that never crashes on me, never gets a virus or spyware, and runs just as fast in a year then it did when linux was freshly installed.

People just are afraid of linux because it is different then what they are used to and hate originates from fear so it is no wonder why people bash talk linux. Same goes for MACS.
