Having used both Linux (Debian) and many different versions of Windows (3.11, 95, 98, ME, XP Pro) i would have to say that Linux is FAR more stable than any of the Windows operating systems. I used Linux for at least six months and can't specefically remember having my computer crash or lock up once, or get a virus. I've been using XP now for a few weeks and it crashes about once a week....i got the "blue screen of death" daily when i had ME on my old Dell.
However unless you are a comp sci chances are you will have a very hard time installing/using Linux and it is hard to survive in a Windows world.
Macs are cool, although i almost never use them. The single button mouse pisses me off though.

Mac's are suppose to be for "artists". [quote]
err, welcome to 1995? You are trying to apply an old methodology to a new age. Before OS X I had no reason to touch a mac. And not every artist uses Mia or 3D at all, look at your processing delay in OS X, vs. Direct x9 effects for audio. And you want to see a render hall ass, recompile it for the mac hardware your shit your self.

my 8 button (or however many it is, you lose count eventually) logitech mx700 mouse works perfectly on a mac with no software needed to make any of them work
Cool...every Mac i have used has had the 1 button mouse. Like i said, i really don't know much about them...although i have a soft-spot for non Windows operating systems.
