What are your computer specs?

[Banul 3,831]

I like windows because its what I'm used to. Don't really care beyond that.

[Revy ~ Two Hands 862]

Apple master-race. Used Windows for 15 years and hated it. Now I just use apple and android. PC gaming is just a bunch of lazy ports and early access/indie shovel ware these days so I have no reason to be tethered to it anymore.

[Blue The Pikachu 537]

Honestly, I'd rather Windows because of its gaming. Mac just sucks for gaming. Also Mac has given me way too many troubles with removable disk drive problems that I desperately need for school. But I use Windows at school and will soon with the laptops we'll be receiving and use Mac at home.

[Snuggie Lord 170]

Apple. For music, of course.

[BrilliantVenture 334]

I've got 3 laptops, 2 pc's, all running windows XP.

 

...and I ain't budging!

XP? We're in the future now. Not sure how long you've been in that stasis pod of your's, Fry.

[Azure Envy 1,092]

I use both. Which one depends on the app that I need to run. Tools, nothing more.

[Discordian 6,015]

I don't really feel like there'd be any difference between the two for what I use them for.

 

I prefer Linux personally but I can't for the life of me get it to install right on my computer.

[MidnightBloom 84]

I code mainly on windows/linux(ubuntu)/android. i don't see the point of being tethered to an expensive product, really. i'm not exactly bleeding money haha.

XD nah, it's personal choice. I like being able to run old programs/games without the need of virtual PC, having my task manager/processes minimal (7 and 8 have like, what...100 background services/programs at all times?) having my classic '98 start menu skin, having all my old hardware run on it, and staying updated until 2019 with the pos2009 hack. I'll upgrade to 7 only when it's reaaaaaally necessary for me to do so.

[Twisted Cyclone 🚓 6,257]

I use MS Windows. I've never even touched the Apple OS or Linux.

[Raini Skies 78]

Neither. Linux is, and will always be, the best as long as you stay away from Ubuntu and Gentoo (Arch Linux is the best, but new users should use Manjaro). Windows is expensive and doesn't work 50% of the time, and OS X is too restricted.

 

FreeBSD is good as well, but I go insane after a day with it.

As a Mac user, I think that Windows is better than OSX. (Or at least Windows 7 is better. I haven't used Windows 8, but I haven't heard many good things about it.)

*cue sad violin*

I can't even play all the games I used to own anymore. No more Skyrim or Fallout.

[Lato 246]

I don't use either, they're both crappy.

>Linux master race

[remove p l e a s e ? 800]

Windows is better for gaming, and you can install it on any machine while Mac is only available for the specific machine.

But in reality, fuck both of them, Linux is free. You can't beat free.

what about making a hackintosh a cheap alternative to macs 

i think i should add linux to this poll 

[long gone 8,929]

Mind toning down the caps lock?

Anyway, Windows. I tried OS X before and it was just... no.

[Revy ~ Two Hands 862]

I got an Ipod touch 32GB to listen to my anime trance music and videogame OST's on

XP was the best Windows OS, if I cared enough I'd run it virtually on my mac to play a few old games but it seems like it wouldn't be worth it.

 

I use MS Windows. I've never even touched the Apple OS or Linux.

You're missing out, Mac has a nicer GUI and I've found it way more effecient and fun to use.

I'd put Linux on my old Win 7 laptop but I don't see any reason to use it.

Does nobody realize you can easily run Windows OS on a Mac? Just get parrallels you can run windows apps or the windows OS on mac without rebooting. I'm going to do this myself when I start practising C#. I'll also regain access to whatever games I had on steam, though I prefer console these days.

This, except with Apple. I like the way it looks and I'm used to it, I think the differences between computers are severely overrated.

[simply creative 696]

just because macs are soo expensive doesn't mean that you cant run their os 

 

just build a hackintosh 

 

you can easily build one for under 300 dollars

Yeah I know, but booting off of my old hard drive causes a blue screen of death, and I'm too poor to afford Windows.

You mean steal Apple's propiertary software and run on it on an un-optimized system.

just get it from a torrent website for free then later buy it

you have to buy apple OS X that cost money so why not run it on a custom pc 

 

but i give 100% full credit to apple for creating Mac and OS X 

as you know i currently own two apple macs

 

a mac pro 

and a macbook air

i could, but like i said it will still cost me money and as a poor senior in uni, that would be like committing suicide

Why are you suggesting that people illegally obtain software if they can't afford it?
