Linux: pain in the ass to learn, video drivers usually have to get recompiled everytime a kernel update comes out, not many choices of business software besides servers. come to think of it, it should only be used to run servers, you're just asking for trouble on client machines. linux = pain in the ass
OSX: if you're willing to pay out of the ass for hardware, be my guest. still not as much choice for business software, unless your business is graphic design or something similar.
Windows: this is what the world runs on, regardless if the EU likes it or not. most choice for ANYTHING.
"yay we're the EU...lets sue all the big bad american companies!!!" get over it. i think MS should threaten to leave that market entirely. lets see how they function with no support from MS. hell they wanna be different, let em be different.
"What's the best gaming laptop for under 1,500 bucks? I had my eye on the P7805u (Gateway), but it seems Best Buy has run out for the time being. Also, as a secondary question, I like the specs on brands such as iBUYPOWER and CyberPower and the like, but are they reliable? I'm a little worried about buying labels that aren't huge like Dell, Gateway, etc. Thanks!"
