thats really interesting question, always there are some people who will support Vista and also who will suppot Linux...and they are not comparable of course ,cause of system and principle of work. but i'd like to know the idea of Linux and Vista users... share your ideas... thanks...
depends on what it is you want it for. most computers now a days come with windows pre-installed so not many people even know linux exists.
Does this thread have anything to do with Search Engines? Why are you polluting the forum with this garbage?
You may think that others consider it important, but your thread has nothing to do with Search Engines. Seriously, do us all a favour and start creating threads that are on topic.
Companies has been pre-installing windows for decades. People know Linux when they find OS and software alternatives exist. Much of them want to escape the problems surrounding windows like Viruses, Spyware, Stability, Slowness, high Hardware Requirements and so on... in my case: I switch to Linux thanks to Vista, go figure.
I think just-4-teens is talking about people who don't hang out on webmaster forums. People here know alternatives exist - even people who run web sites just for fun probably have a passing awareness that their server runs on something that isn't Windows, even if they don't know what that means. People who only have a MySpace site, and think that when they bookmark something it downloads it (I know someone like this) have no idea at all that there are are alternatives out there.
