Windows is vastly superior, linux is good for certain aspects (net sec, servers etc) and Mac is just awful like all apple products.

Does this even matter any more Lol

For server, I always stick to Debian. Simple and solid ... and just works.

For PC, of course Windows. And for mobile: Android.

Only ever used Windows and despite the bugs I still like it. Most software works on it as well.

Same as duck and Fire. Never needed the others, and don't have the technical knowledge to make any informed comments anyway. 

Though if stereotypes are anything to go by - Mac is for hipster Apple fanboys who need to look sophisticated in their coffee shops, and Linux essential for those who want to look like they're smarter than the Windows sheep. Lol

Though I haven't used IE since finding Firefox and then Chrome. Not that you can blame my child self for thinking it was quite literally the only way to access the Internet based on the name alone.

“People are continually pointing out to me the wretchedness of white people in order to console me for the wretchedness of blacks. But an itemized account of the American failure does not console me and it should not console anyone else. That hundreds of thousands of white people are living, in effect, no better than the "African Americans" is not a fact to be regarded with complacency. The social and moral bankruptcy suggested by this fact is of the bitterest, most terrifying kind.”

Firefox and Google did a great job bashing IE...at its current performance Chrome is bloated and so is Firefox. Good old IE perhaps will come back in style one day...

In all fairness chrome is a resource hog and Firefox is getting to be the same way. One day edge might be worth using though.

I love Mac—really sleek and the terminal is powerful, and still runs most games I'm interested in playing. I did just buy a Windows PC for the first time in many years though so I'm adjusting. Fine for home, but I wouldn't want to work on Windows.

I've only used Mac a handful of times around friends houses and could not get on with it.
Always been on Windows, and to be honest I don't see a reason to change. I am so used to using Windows I'm more afraid of change I think.

And Linux, only heard of it through talk, never even researched a picture of what it is, someone help me.
