I've seen linux, I like it, but I wouldn't want to run into some compatability problems. I'll stick to the friendliness of windows for now .

Windows because most applications are developed on it for it, however can be annoying sometimes. But Linux would be my 2nd choice if I had one because its a very fast OS.
On the contrary..most applications are developed on linux.
A good example is VLC.
He means, that all of most-used application has written in MS VS, so it Windows-based.
For me it is Windows, coz it's only system that i have at this time. Saw Mac OS, really nice thing...
my vote for osx. why? because it combines the positive aspects of windows and linux.
- the os itself is a highly customized bsd and open source.
- contrary to linux all the major desktop apps are available.
- no malware, virii whatsöver.
- as expected from a bsd it's transparent and solid. with all the usual unix benefits.
- the avg. osx-only app seems to be well designed. and by 'designed' i mean not just the optical aspects.
- application management is very easy and straight forward. actually it's much better than on linux and windows.
- desktop features are really handy. not just toys without actual use.
of course the biggest plus for me is what i called 'usual unix benefits'. elaborating that would be way too long for here but depending on your knowledge you know what i mean ...

Something confuses me. If linux is opensouce and freeware and OSX is based on linux, why isnt OSX freeware and opensource? Ive used Mac and Linux before and I think it has and will make an even bigger impact in the future, dont get me wrong I like Linux although mainly being a Windows user.
dont ban me just spank me
it's not. it's based on bsd as i wrote.Originally Posted by säbrtooth
osx is open source as i wrote. but not freeware., why isnt OSX freeware and opensource?

Os X works by default only on macs which cost....however $29 is a joke. don't you think?
Good point SBFreak
no, it's about the license. by buying the $29 bucks thing you're a legit owner so you are officially allowed to use a hackint0sh. the osx usage terms are not restricted to apple hardware

Well there is one good thing I like about Steve Jobs decsion, if there is a flaw somewhere in OSX someone is bound to find out and those whom are fans of Apple and also knowledgeable enuf in programming ,Im sure will help to patch the opensource codes.

i'm not sure if that's a good or a bad thing

I like to use W7....reason it is game but the best is Macintosh.
Instab dont make me defend the enemy!
(joking Linux, Mac is good too)
Of course its a good thing. just look at firefox and any other well maintain opensource code. Just consider pgp for a moment - rock solid.
But then Windows have millionair programmers working innovate and patch holes too.
