Windows XP Professional... plug & play is amazing.

The only reason that Macs seem "safer" from virus and the like is because hardly anyone uses them, so no one targets them.

Besides, its almost impossible to modify/upgrade a Mac. You just have to open a PC tower and you can change RAM cards, ports, drives, etc.

I own both Windows XP Professional and Linux Ubuntu, but I use Windows mostly... Linux is still in the experimental stages at the moment.

I started running Windows Vista in July, otherwise Windows ME after my XP HD failed. When I got AutoCAD I found out it ran only on XP so I spent about two months getting XP... I tried installing FreeBSD but my system didn't like it. What's it like?

I agree with alot of people. Macs suck. Their users say how great it is, but I've seen and used Apples latest and greatest, and it doesn't seem much different. Let's remind them that the internet and the best programs not made by Adobe were not made for Macs. Macs are designed to run Mac programs.

I have Ubuntu 6.1 and XP SP2. I use XP for gaming and internet (can't find modem drivers), and Ubuntu for everything else.
