no, linux is for people that WISH they had a big penis, BSD is for people with a black man sized penis.

I used Virtual Box with Windows if I had to do something that Wine refused to start. But then you still have to install Windows.

Also, why do you think Windows is so shitty? It’s the best platform for gaming.

It’s not exactly hard to have a dual boot and I doubt you have a server running 24/7.

Because it is an amazingly shitty operating system, its just unfortunate that most games are coded for it.

1) It has a terrible scheduler.
2) Its method of dealing with file systems quickly becomes incredibly untidy as the number of volumes increase.
3) By its nature, it tempts many developers to use an unnecessary number of daemons which sit wasting resources.
4) The user/security systems are designed at higher levels as an after thought rather than right from the core which makes it inherently insecure.
5) The graphical output system is tied directly to the kernel.
6) It has an extremely limited shell.
7) It has very little in the way of remote access capability.
8) Newer versions use a signed driver system which is a potential run-in to making it refuse to run on non-certified hardware (i.e. the hardware providers would need to pay Microsoft silly amounts of money).
9) It doesn’t use memory as efficiently as it really should.
10) The I/O scheduler is terrible (the crux of the problem with long boot times).
11) It has no package management.

I could keep going, but seriously, not a single person who actually understands all of those points and has used windows and linux for a significant period of time will disagree. Equally the vast majority of people don’t care so there’s no point explaining it to them.
