You can't decide what is truly better by what people prefer. Most of us haven't used both. Nor had we the need for both |

Linux? You know. Linux isn't an operation system...

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux. |

I'm on the fence
Recently Microsoft is trying to force Win 10 NSA Edition down my throat.
I also stopped updates on my 8.1 because of the spyware that was received.
I've got a Bootable USB Ubuntu MATE ready to go if Microsoft tries again. |

This is Windows Vs. Linux, not Old Windows Vs. New Windows

I have used both. I have used Windows all my life. I just started using Ubuntu for 5 months now. On VM Ware though. I find both awesome. Because I'm a big computer girl... FTP? Windows. Exploit testing? Ubuntu. Making programs? Windows. Don't have a hard drive? Ubuntu's Try now.
Ubuntu is a haxing OS for me.

On Linux you can download programs just by typing this in:
wget (website url) |

Or just do sudo get.
More simplier.

| Apt-get is only on Debian based distros. I use Arch Linux so the command is sudo pacman |
