It's a difficult choice between Windows and Linux. Windows is very
easy to install, friendly to use and has sup****t for all the latest
hardware. Linux trails months behind Windows for hardware sup****t,
is harder to install and takes considerable time to learn.
My advice: If you are a user, use Windows and accept its awful
security problems. If you want to develop or provide services, try
and learn Linux, it is superior by miles.
My belief is that Linux is better in every respect, but learning it
is something you never stop doing; it changes faster than you can
keep up with and there is no such thing as a Linux expert.
I doubt that helps you much, but I enjoy saying it. :)
