The Guide to picking the right operating system

Windows

Windows Vista
Wikipedia Link:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_vista

Windows Vista contains many changes and new features, including an updated graphical user interface and visual style dubbed Aero, a redesigned search function. Vista aims to increase the level of communication between machines on a home network, using peer-to-peer technology to simplify sharing files and media between computers and devices.

Price: Can't find help needed.

Windows 7
Wikipedia Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_7

Unlike Windows Vista, which introduced a large number of new features, Windows 7 was intended to be a more focused, incremental upgrade to the Windows line, with the goal of being compatible with applications and hardware with which Windows Vista was already compatible.

Price: $100.00

What

Since when was Ubuntu the only Linux distro? And since when was any distro certified "official" by the higher Linux authorities?

Linux also has far more uses than just for servers/supercomputers

No but seriously, I've never used a Mac, and therefore am not in a possision to pass serious judegement.
I have a dual boot with windows 7 and linux ubuntu. Linux is nice, but I don't have any real use for it.

linux is good for very few things. the other 99% of it's users are script kiddies trying to make others think they are comp l337 for using it. you have to emulate more then a loving mac does just to do things.
