Which is best and why? Give reason. I say Windows, since it's the easiest to use and also one of the oldest of the 3 out there. Every release of a new OS of theirs gets better and worse, but who cares?
I will give my reasons on Mac and Linux: Mac my *1: I have a mac and it is so simple to use I could never go back to windows. Linux my *2: It has the ability to run BackTrack on it which is my favorite tool. -MCG
I voted for windows as I have been using it for ages! I heard a lot of Linux now day. If Windows dont work hard, Linux will surpass windows one day.
So far I've just used Windows for PC and laptop, I ain't that sure if mobile system is also counted, because I'm using iphone. I think I like Windows, since I've just got used to it, for so long. Linux and Mac might be good too, maybe some day will check them.
Linux is the best, followed by windows and mac is by far far far the worst. mac is a noobs os, linux allows much better "hacks" and customisation.

Windows > Mac > Linux Which OS is free? Linux Which OS is easier to install? Windows > Mac OS > Linux Which OS is better for the kids? Linux (Sugar) > Mac OS > Windows.

Windows > Linux > Mac OS Which OS may transform user to become software developers? Linux > Mac OS > Windows Which OS will become slower after a certain time of use? Windows > Mac OS > Linux Which OS has better technical support? Windows = Mac OS > Linux Which OS can run on more different kind of hardware (CPU)? Linux > Windows > Mac OS Which OS comes with the most efficient editor? Linux (VI) > Mac OS > Windows Yes, VI is the most efficient editor and it is good for drafting research papers. Which OS is for gamers? Windows > Linux > Mac OS Which OS will make the user be addicted? Linux > Mac OS > Windows Which OS cost more? Mac OS > Windows > Linux (free) Which OS gives the best user experience? Mac OS > Linux > Windows (Changes too often without much of an improvement, only makes the things worse).
