Curoisity about Windows

I feel like i'm finally starting to get along in my posts and decided it was a time to try doing a poll.

ok so here it is. Windows; love it, hate it, or don't care?

You all probably know my thoughts by now (if not look at my avatar). so I'm not going to into it...yet.

I'm really curious to see how many people really hate/love it.

I don't like it, but I don't really hate it. I have been trying different versions of Linux and starting to lean towards Linux. Although most of the people I talk to in real life use Windows and runs into Windows problems...

I mainly use Windows, but I have been experimenting with Linux. I have to keep current with Windows for my customers, so I cannot currently leave it behind.

I use Windows because it's easiest - and it really doesn't give me as many issues as some people......maybe it's because I dont' install some new hardware everyday, dunno.

I haven't gone to the Church Of Linux yet because a)there is no point for me and b) I don't like religions that worship software.

granted i prolly didn't need to switch to Linux, but my last post does give a few of the reasons why.

I am using windows on all machines currently, but am I sold? No, it's just all I've ever used. I do have a copy of Linux that I am going to install on another machine to play with. I am alwaysd looking for more out of a system.
Windows offers far more proggies, and support, for now.Never tried a MAC either though.

Hmmm... Much as I could complain about windoze (especially when £130 bits of hardware just don't work under certain flavours of windoze and they're supposed to ), I believe the problem is worse for Linux & TBH, I just can't be *rsed to go through the Linux learning curve

Windows is an amazing piece of software if you consider the entire scope of what it does.

Don't you think there are enough religious arguments in this forum already?
