You are wrong, way wrong, for the millions who use Windows everyday with very few problems.


Your experience, and pyslent's experience, and indeed the experience of millions who have not had problems, do not obliviate the statistics and experience of even more millions of people who do have problems.

It's just statistics. For every person who doesn't have a problem many do have problems. In addition you are probably more adept at maintenence.

Among the windows users I know personally, I would say that over 50% have serious problems where a system restore is necessary or they just get frustrated and buy a new machine.

My ex just switched because of this. I just stayed at a friend who bought his first computer, a Mac, because his wife has a PC. His wife is going to buy a Mac soon and dump the PC. My brother is going with a Mac after 15 years on PCs.

Your experiences do not disprove stats.
