From time to time (every 2 years or so) I make an attempt at buying a Windows license in order to run some program that only runs on windows. In 10 years (5 or so attempts) I have yet to figure out what edition of Windows I want, how to buy it and how to download an ISO image of it so I can load it into a VMWare image. Every time I realize that the effort just isn't worth it so I give up. I just want an OS that works. So I use OSX and I use Linux. Where I don't have to care much about what I'm running. At most I have to occasionally care about the revision I'm running being a bit old. But there's no nonsense with different editions that I need to waste time on.
