Linux isn't any better or worse than Windows, it's just different. Both have their strengths and weaknesses. It's like saying "Gee, this apple tastes good! Much better than that crappy banana!"

Well, that all just depends on what you're using your pc for, and your personal tastes. But I'd have to say, that if I think an apple tastes good, than I should be entitled to my oppinion. Especially, since that's my area of focus in college, I'm bound to have stronger, and probably more well informed oppinions about "apples" and "bananas."

Here's somewhat of a breakdown between the two operating systems.

The best thing with Linux (at least, the thing I love the most - after aaxine, of course) is human-readable configs. Priceless when you have your system all down and dead. Not including openness and friendliness in almost killing amounts.

Oh yes, absolutely and wholeheartedly. Windows has the annoying habits of (1) hiding the configs from you since a poor user is not supposed to understand them, and (2) modifying the configs by itself! My network card kept disappearing because the Windows Restore function destroyed its own config, and that is soooo annoying.
