You're all talking on Linux, it's what runs the server that this forum is on. That said, I use Windows for my computers at home.

I love Mac's immunity to viruses and it's built in option, but it's gaming is lacking, lest you download Vista or XP onto it, in which case it is buggy. I don't know crap about Linux, to be quite honest.

Immunity = Mac users have been ripped off so badly, and are so stupid for allowing themselves to be ripped off so badly that out of pity, nobody even bothers to write viri for a Mac.

Running on Windows, already tried Ubuntu but my school wireless seemed to hate it, and I'm considering purchasing of them new MacBooks.

MacBooks are an expensive waste of money. Why is it otherwise identical Mac hardware costs that much more than PC hardware?

I have always used windows. I like macs because they are flashy and cool for making vids and crap, but thats about it. I'm thinking of getting a macbook sometime in the future because their battery life is pretty good and I don't really play games any more.

Macs doesn't exist here ... errr.. ok, they do. But nobody buys it. It's hard to find them on stores and when you find one, you can use the same cash to buy 3 or more pcs with a better hardware.
So, between Windows and Linux, I think Linux is much better for servers and Windows is better for gaming, graphical applications and programming (Sorry, I'm fan of Delphi and Kylix is quite weak compared to the free Turbo Delphi Explorer). So, all pcs from my home and my laptop uses windows. But I plan to have an ubuntu on one pen drive, because the Windows Vista from my laptop is horrible, specially the very slow touchscreen that comes with it. I hope Ubuntu makes it much faster.
