If you were to dump your MacBook Pro, would you switch to Windows or Linux?

  I would be inclined to switch to linux Elementary OS should my program usage allow it. I have become disenchanted with Windows as of late(past Windows 7).

  I've just gone to Linux from mac. Went to Mac before xp sp2 so I had been on it a long time. The more clicks, touches and swipes they insist I use just to navigate, the more I appreciate vim and tmux.

    Which Linux did you choose? Which laptop?
    • noonespecial 10y ago
      Dell XPS. Debian 8.6 Mate desktop. mate-desktop.com

  I changed (from Linux) to a Mac because I wanted to have easy, reliable handling of Microsoft Office documents on my laptop. These days I run a bunch of Linux and Windows VMs on top of MacOS anyway. I'll probably check out WINE/CrossOver again, and look for a hypervisor that supports an integrated desktop on Linux ... Or Apple will just release a 64GB-capable MacBookPro before my current Mid-2014 model is obsolete.
