I think its Windows, simply because of the number of applications, tools and utilities that have been developed on Windows. But then there are too many bugs and viruses and malware that have also been developed which make users miserable once the computer is infected.

I do like Linux, and have used it some time ago, but then had to discontinue it because there were no drives for a number of accessories easily available. However, I prefer Open source software to software hegemony of Microsoft.

If I had a choice, I'd definitely root for Linux. I have not tried Mac, but from what most people who have used it, it is better than Windows.

I have been using the Safari and Opera browsers and prefer these rather than Internet Explorer. Also I have been using Firefox quite a lot. Apple's Safari is by far the best of the lot!

You should check out the latest release of Ubuntu Linux. It has excellent out of the box driver support.

Linux rocks! That's been all I use ever since I discovered it, for a few reasons.
1. Linux is more efficient.
2. Linux requires absolutely minimal maintenance, if any.
3. Linux requires no security software at all.
4. Linux is free.
5. Linux is more user-friendly.
6. Linux is much more stable, and rare crashes do not require a complete restart, only a restart of the graphical display, which only takes 3 seconds.
7. Linux has better eye-candy (google compiz fusion).
8. Just about everything that runs on linux is free as well.

Windows is for general consumption because if you will go to an internet cafe most computers are in windows because of the so called "user friendly " thing but windows is only good if your pc has great specs but in you have some junk computers you still have hope, linux is very efficient and does not carry more loads so even if your pc has a specs of 64 vid card and 128 ddr you can still run it smoothly w/ linux...

in short a prefer linux
