Yikes, I was thinking of replacing my Windoze laptop for a Mac when it dies (My desktop of course is Ubuntu and I totally won’t use Vista) but dude this is a foreign language. And I used to DEVELOP for Mac!

I’m a big fan of Ubuntu too. If I went with a non-Apple laptop, it’d be running Ubuntu right now.

We’ve actually got all three major OS’s in my household. My mom runs Ubuntu, I run Mac OS X and my step-brother loves video-games so he runs Windows XP (many a time I’ve thought of secretly installing Linux on his PC). Yup, there’s two mid-20′s geeky guys in the household yet my mom runs the most geek-elite operating system in the house! That’s how easy and intuitive Ubuntu has become and it’s easily the best value out of the three operating systems.

I’m an Ubuntu guy. I’ve been 100% linux for a few years now. I’m not saying its better in all areas but I never have to pay for any upgrades or programs (other than games) and it is so much faster for me to get work done its not even funny.

All I have to say is for the Microsoft fans: Vista LOL!

Hey to each his own Brad! I used Windows (including XP) for many years until finally breaking down and installing Ubuntu on my old main computer because Windows barely ran on it. I enjoyed the non-windows experience so much that when looking for laptops the Macbook Pro shot to the top of my list even though my previous Mac experiences were sluggish.

I was actually worried moving from Windows XP to Mac OS X that I wouldn’t be able to find quality applications but the opposite is true, there’s a ton of great programs out there for Mac OS X.

In either case, getting rid of applications every now and then is a good idea, especially if you have duplicates. Even though I got rid of 20, I still have 113 applications installed! Clearly I’ve got a few more apps to toss out.

I have Windows XP. Looking back, I probably would of gotten a Mac.. But I have found so many different XP programs that are exceptional (Notepad++ for coding, Microsoft Office for text documents & slideshows), I’m really happy with the computer I have.

Nevertheless, My “All Programs” takes up my entire screen and I should probably clean some of it up
