- Linux for all things technical - coding, sysadmin
- Windows for the office: Mail, documents
- OS X for a good, imperfect, compromise between the two.
Can’t see this changing any time soon. Windows bash etc are an add-on.
Linux sure as hell is better than a Mac for geek stuff, but for simple things like email it completely sucks.
I’ve spent months recently using a Linux machine for non-work dev. I have tried every email client I could find. I am buying a MacBook Air as soon as apple announce.
I’ve been helping someone who works on Windows with tech issues. Not going near it.
- neverminder 8y agoIf you are thinking about the MB Air, I would also consider a chromebook (like Google Pixelbook). Lately enabled Linux app support makes it best of both worlds.
- randomsearch 8y agoHadn't consider that, thank you! I will definitely take a look.
