I personally stayed away from Linux because everything I need is already on Windows. I might eventually switch if I ever need to use stuff that is much better on Linux. It doesn't help that I'm not a programmer.

@Juju the thing tho is that all programs were the same as on my computer, but 2 years older versions. O.O

I saw somewhere that 74% of computers are running XP. I wonder if that includes computers with dual boot OS's.

Well the thing about Vista is that apparently a computer like my old one wouldn't run it, even at lowest settings, or would run it at ridiculously slow speed with crashes, yet Seven would run fine. Windows 7 was basically Windows Vista but optimized, although the addition of some new stuff might not make it sound like it's really less resource intensive.

My favourite OS is Mint, I guess Ubuntu made it to become the best Linux distro, but their 11 version was very buggy and Unity is not so huh, good. So, I moved to Mint and am loving it.

I didn't try the others really, but my favorites are Ubuntu, Windows XP and MAC os X.
I am not a computer programmer so I just need an OS to do all I want to do else. Herefore my favorite is MAc os X.

Actually I was for long a real Linux(well Ubuntu at least) HATER.
I hated it. I really had a bad experience once while trying to install xubuntu on an iBook.(I don't care if it wasn't Xubuntu's fault Jim :P)

But happily I got a bit over that.
