Probably is, are you an Apple OS user shayd? I personally have not used Apple OS, is it better value than M$? I use mainly windows (OK) Linux and Unix (great OSs). I would switch full-time to Linux if it were able to run all my Win apps/games properly.
So any of you guys tempted to switch to Windows 7 when it finally arrives.
I run just about every OS out there on at least one of my machines. Asking which OS is "better" is sort of a tough question because inevitably, fan boys of both sides will clash. I will tell you that OS X is definitely intuitive, snappy, and functional, value-wise, it would depend on what you want to get out of it. There are a number of uses where OS X is a bit more intuitive than Windows, however the reverse is also true. So it's really just a preference thing, not so much one is better than the other.
Also, if you want to check out Linux there are a number of ways you can experience it.
1. Download Virtual Box from Sun, download a Linux distro and install it as a virtual machine. This will run Linux inside of Windows sort of the same way as a program.
2. Download Wubi, which will install a directory for Linux to run locally. This will give you the ability dual-boot without the hassle of re-partitioning your hard-drive.
3. You can re-partition your hard-drive and install a disto to the new partition.
No matter which you choose, a Linux program called WINE (stands for Windows Is Not Emulated) that will let you run Windows programs from inside Linux seemlessly.
