The funniest quote about Windows vs. Linux I’ve seen is from Scott Granneman, an author, entrepreneur and adjunct professor at Washington University in St. Louis:
“To mess up a Linux box, you need to work at it; to mess up your Windows box, you just have to work on it.”
For me, I have already got rid of Windows from home. I now run a Linux on a desktop PC and another OSX on the Mac Mini G4 serving as the entertainment center. The question next is whether to upgrade to OSX Tiger and Intel based iMac, or to upgrade to a better Linux desktop. I’m leaning toward the iMac.
