All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

#6 - Linux and BSD supports more hardware out-of-the-box.
Linux includes all drivers in the kernel and has a smaller driver set. Windows doesn't ship with its driver set updated every two months. That's not quite a fair comparison, really.
Bull, why do you think that windows is so big on th harddrive.

#8 - Viruses and Spyware are basically nonexistant for Linux and BSD.
Well... Viruses and spyware require noneducated users (up to a level) that are not knowledgeable about their system. People that don't care what works in the computer just take what comes with it, and that's windows. Not a reason why Linux or BSD would be better.
yeah your right, linux people know not to run as administrator .
Microsoft: "let everyone run after us. We'll just INNOV~1"
Locked before the flaming gets out of hand. Some people think Windows and it's tools can be useful, others don't. Given that everyone here is very opinionated on operating systems I don't think we'll agree on this subject.
