All my computers run Linux. That bastard Gates isn't getting a dime from me.
He isn't from me either, although I like and run windows
I bought grand opening special for Win 8 for very tiny price .... got free updated to 8.1 .. then free 10 keep up to date
I'm not letting my disgust for gates stop me from what I like
All that said, had to as Civil Engineering clients all use AutoCAD on Windows & they were our money base .. and I taught them over phone with
exactly what they were using in front of me so i could instruct them exactly (they are extreme pros all use win to run heavy duty Civil AutoCAD on BTW)
A Win Win
Also, for non those who are non techies, it's so easy and breakproof to run

New computer wants to update 10 to 11. Anyone running it? Experiences, good and bad?
I haven't heard any opinions about it.

They pretty much did that with 10, but it was the strongest OS ever for heavy duty applications

Sorry to burst bubble, bit it's quite limited in the husky apps areas .. at least for the few who tried to make theirs work on it .. most of the biggies gave up
Have never encountered an Engineering firm that uses it for Civil and other demanding husky programs
It's OK for media & drawing (pretty fair in fact as that is what it was designed for) and also OK for light to medium dicking around I suppose

Apple processing power is equivalent to PC based systems. Being "gutsy" isn't the issue. It's software developers having to develop their software for 2 disparate systems. It is simply uneconomical because Windows based PC's are cheaper, and Windows is a better enterprise system. Apple wouldn't even consider that marketplace. It's simply not designed for that. It has become a digital ecosystem that includes a range of products all designed to work seamlessly. Windows has never followed that path because it is an operating system, and is not geared towards various hardware types.
They are simply on different paths. If kiebers is running a high end engineering app, I guess Windows makes sense. If a domestic user, Apple is a far better option. I worked in IT, and used both extensively.

The key is newer chip and another physical device that started being added about 5 years ago
My trusty Asus is a blazer (we bought for the future at the time) so I do not need speed & anything faster would cost many 1,000s today ... so I think I'll sit on my older speedball & 10 .

Seems he does a lot of stuff. Duck Duck fans need to listen to him on how NOT to use it and how TO use it .. vital
If you don't know how to use it correctly, you are kidding yourself on privacy
