Ubuntu (or any Linux)>Mac>Microsoft

Why? Free. 6 month release cycle. Open source. Can do everything Windows does and more. The list goes on.

Oh yeah, it doesn't fuck every resource on the system over either.

You don't need Vista in the same way you don't need XP, ME, 2000, 98.
Windows 95 was fine, go back to it.

Mac and Linux are crappy alternatives because the majority of gambling websites don't support them.

That's not stopping anyone. Oh, and you'd rather have an immune os x pc than an infested windows pc.
It's stopping gamblers? I've never had a problem with my Windows PC

This makes me laugh all the time when sometimes cries out how Mac is so immune and Windows is so vulnerable. Go look up reputable statistics for the year.

eh, i like vista.

i'd prefer to be using arch or gentoo personally, but UWS doesnt support it over their wireless due to authentication software issues.

besides, its all personal opinion anyway.

no use complaining becuase a company made something, they arnt forcing you to buy it.

do you have a cry about mercedes or ferrari producing their cars? no. exactly, so dont have a cry when there are plenty of alternatives out there.
