Apologies for typos...

Here goes, I voted other brand as the main machine is now an ancient Quad Core Philips desk top machine.

It runs Vista for my wife as Windows is all she knows...

I have two laptops that I use at least daily...

1) 13 inch Macbook Pro, August 2012 vintage...
Pro's:- Quite a slick front end, GUI. Easy to use. Fast boot/reboot times. Neved had a SYSTEM crash.
Con's:- Safari is s**t. Some apps' can be unstable. I had to become an Apple developer
to obtain the GCC suite - WHAT! - it is free is it not? Some transient commands look ancient compared to Linux variants. And the worst of all is Finder, whoever designed that complete load of s**t wants shooting. I am using muCommander in its place. The text editor is worse than, dare I say it, Notepad... Enough of this ranting...

2) HP notebook, dual core about 6 years old now with Debian 6.0.x.
Pro's:- Is there anything more stable?
Con's:- Apart from rigidly sticking to F(L)OSS to the letter and having to obtain commercial
stuff manually then there are NO con's. Everything just works AND never crashes.

By far the best OS I have ever used except for my AMIGA of course which leads me
to my final OS......

AMIGA OS 3.1.x, my A1200(HD) is on 24/7 and has been for over 15 years and I still
develop for it. This is still the coolest most intuitive OS of all...

(/Me awaits the flak... ;o)
