scarabin, firstly linux isn't any less user friendly than windows or osx.
but, as for reasons...choice, stability, security, cost, power.
and, to this day, the only program i can't find a comparable app for is flash.
office, graphics/publishing, web, email, etc...
my question is why pay $300 for an operating system that a) is easily exploited by viri and spyware, b) lacks proper security features, c) requires expensive additional software to do anything (office for another $400+) d) doesn't give you a choice to optimize your system for your hardware or usage, e) doesn't care about you, as a user.
the list goes on and on. in the end, after giving up windows i've never looked back.
so far, i can't see a reason TO use it.
