Concerning about availability and stability I may go with Unix. But when we talk from a general point of view, hmmm, an altogether picture, I'll go with Linux, it is rather more flexible then Unices are.

only reason i went with linux here is the power it has, but for gaming, nothing beats windows yet.

That makes sense, seeing as how you live in "no where," how could you guess
you'd be posting in "somewhere." Spelled that one wrong too, bud. ;}

lol, man you guys are harsh! anyway, my guess is that what everyone one is wondering was what you really expected from this poll posted in a linux forum. i woulda figured that the outcome is more than obvious.

Moved: A poll and question that isn't directly asking about Linux nor technical is more suitable in General. Regards.

I think the witch from Wizard of Oz was the better witch of them all..

Not every, mate, just the most obvious (and appalling) ones...
For instance I didn't pick on the non-capitalised i :}

One question, mate - is English the native tongue of the inhabitants of "no where?"

It's hard to say, really it can't be about which is better -it's all about opinion. I like Mac and on i86 Linux. But it's an easy argument to sat that freeBSD is better
