Would you still use Linux if you didn't have to pay for Windows?

£70 is an awful lot of money for something you don't like and don't agree with. I wouldn't use Windows even if the price tag was £0, because it isn't free.

As for the OP, I'd still use Linux yes. But then I use Linux, Windows 7 and OS X Snow Leopard interoperably anyway. Horses for courses, they all do some stuff better than the others.

Yes, I should have been more specific about the meaning of 'free'

still wouldn't use it if it were free. I don't use Linux because I'm too stingy to pay for a windows license.

You have to pay for windows ?

i think i paid for windows 95 but that came free with my p133

The only reason i'm still using Windows on occasions is becasue of gaming and Photoshop.

Other than that, i use Linux.
