O/S's, What is the advantage/disadvantages to each? What does it matter if
the tools you need are not available on that OS. I have found 1 multitrack
project for linux and never could find out how to make it work. Windows,
YEs it has some disadvantages, but it is the king of business world Hand
down(well in most countries). For artistic thinkers MAC tends to lend itself
well to how they work, not to mention 90% of all the pro audio/MIDI
sequencer apps run on MAC. Industry standard Audio tool is ProTools runs on
Windows but the system is most stable on MAC.

The moral of this post, pick the OS that supports the tools you need to get
your job done. Coming from a ex-Unix/Windows/Netware admin, I can tell you
that there really are no differences in how they run, they all have pro's
and con's and all have they're stability problems. Don't bash someone
because of the OS they run.

We could spend days on that, do you really want to start again?


What does it matter if
the tools you need are not available on that OS.

It matters the whole world, so to speak. Back to computer purchasing 101, from the days when computers cost several times as much as your house: First you pick the application(s) which solve your business need. Then you pick the OS which runns your application(s.) Then (and only then) you pick the hardware which best runs that OS.

Yep.



Don't bash someone because of the OS they run.

As you may have noticed, there is very little of that coming from some of us here...
