I run Windows and find it bloody annoying, but unfortunately I'm too dumb for Linux. From what I hear you need at least some computer skills for it - which I don't have.

Moved to Tech Stuff.
I'm with Raffles in that Windows is annoying occasionally but Linux seems a lot of hassle to switch to. Also, lots of my games will probably refuse to work. |

This article about Debian pretty much sums up the issues I had with switching from Windows. It's not hard, but you will have to learn some new stuff. On topic: I run both Windows and Linux. Gentoo for school stuff and Windows for games. Most games here on Abandonia works in Linux though since DOSBox and ScummVM are cross platform. |

Well, the thing is that I know hardly anything about computers, really, so I'm afraid I might take a long time getting used to a completely different type of OS. And unless I'm very much mistaken, most computers are built to be much more favourably disposed to Windows than to Linux, so you'd have to know how to fight that as well. A friend of mine runs Linux and swears by it, though, so I suppose I could try asking him to show me the basics sometime...

I don't really "like" Windows....but I am really good with it. It doesn't annoy me or bother me...I guess when you know what you are doing it really helps.
I never have any crashing or other issues with windows at all...
