Thank you for the post. I am using Linux for my entire office servers. I am running a web server, mysql server, postgres, postfix and samba servers from Linux. I use Windows for my personnel use. Configuration is little bit difficult in Linux. But it will run smoothly afterward. You don’t have to worry about viruses. You can fully control Linux PC from a Telnet terminal.
For your operating system, depending on your computing needs. Windows can not do some things you can do, Linux for Linux can not do something Windows can do. They can do most of the people who need their computers to do.
You have discussed pros and cons of using Linux and Windows 7 as operating system.

As far as 'm concerned Linux is history! I have moved into Windows 7. It works smoothly, fast and extremely user-friendly when compared to Linux.
I strongly suggest Windows 7 as a superb operating system anyone who is not very skilled as an It professional. The truth is you need not to be a professional in IT to reap the benefits of Windows 7.

Linux has made inroads in recent PC sales because it works so well on netbooks light with the limited RAM and processing power.This article is not designed to ignite new wars that are better or worse - is to understand the market and understand the competition. Comparison between Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems is a lengthy discussion about the personal computing industry.
I mean windows. Just because more people use Windows, so if you have a question about this, more people will use for you, and most of the programs carried out, are made for windows, since most users are on Windows or Mac.
