    Windows is for people that know how to run a computer. Mac is for people that cant fix problems. Not to bash anyone that has Mac, but it just seems like they are making people seem more stupid by telling them "you cant crash it"

    You stepped in it...

    I use Windows XP SP2. I love it...it does everything I want it to do and I've yet to have a single problem with it.

    That's wrong on many levels. I would say that OS X is for people who don't want problems, or want less of them. Windows is for people who assume that problems are a given. Which they are, in Windows, and in everything else too, but not to so great a degree as in Windows, in my experience.

    I would also say that Windows is for people who think that "reinstall the OS" or "reboot and pray" are optimal solutions to problems. Linux is for people who know how to run a computer, for sufficiently large values of "run".

    Windows is mostly for people who have become forcibly accustomed to Windows to the point where they don't recognize something better when it comes along, or for people who passively accept whatever comes installed on their computers by default due to lack of knowledge of alternatives or motivation to change.

    I use Windows because though I'm internet saavy, I'm computer retarded. I honestly don't care what I use, I just want it to be easy, run most programs, and not always die.

    Linux is for programmers and real computer savvy folks. Having said that, I use Windows. But I have used Linux before.

    Something seemed wrong about this thread, and I didn't realize what it was until Unne's post - it was missing the Elitist Linux User Post.
