Linux is pretty stable and secure.. and the idea of being able to change -anything- in the kernel, GUI, etc appeals to quite a few people.

Because Windows, while not bad on its own, is fairly crappy in comparison to the others.

oh...I see. Wait.

How so? (is this the wrong thread to be asking this?)

Windows has more security holes in it than a bank after nuclear war.

For one thing, autoplay is set on by default. Which means that when you pop in a Sony music CD, it can automatically infest your computer without asking permission (actually, it does ask permission, but does it even if you say no).

Yeah I have to admit, Windows does have its security holes --; But my computer is 6 years old, no anti-virus software and it's still running perfectly fine o.O; My friend has anti-virus software and he gets a virus in like 3 weeks of getting his new computer --;
