If anyone's read my post a little while back (link: http://smokyhosts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6724) then you'd know that I've been running Linux, because my Windows didn't start properly, and the Vista/XP drive is busted. Well I've found my XP Pro install discs - so now I'm running Windows again, and it's such a refreshing change after running Ubuntu, I mean Linux is nice - Open Source is great. But I honestly can't do without my Windows.
Sure I might install Linux once I get a bigger HD, so I can have both - but something just turned me off of Linux: I posted on the forums (Linux ones, not these) that I wouldn't be around for a while cause I installed Windows, explained why and all that, and said that I liked the Open Source principle and would come back to Linux when I had enough space to install it alongside Windows, and I was linked to a rather long article that was entirely based around arrogance, with statements like "If you don't like *insert random linux thing here* then we don't want you" and "Don't think Why should I want Linux but Why should Linux want me".
Honestly that just tops the lot, why the hell should any of us care what a piece of software wants? This comes close to surpassing the arrogance of Microsoft, and atleast Microsoft has something to be arrogant about with 95% of PCs running Windows.
Well, that's the end of my rant. Thanks for listening, respond and tell me your opinion anyway.
Finally, my Windows is back.
Finally, my Windows is back.

All I have to say is...Stick with Windows. I actually tried to use the Apple Laptop, don't know what model. This laptop is so confusing, I mean the only thing I could do is listen to music and write. It's basically like a college students laptop. I mean the internet was okay, but saying Apples aren't my favorite.
