My Mac has a Windows XP Virtual Machine thanks to VMware Fusion. I can't say that OS X is better... it's the Mac that runs better. The Hardware... PCs take a long time to boot (again depending on the hardware). But Macs are so much easier and I'm so happy I decided to switch. I ran Vista on my Mac once, it ran great! And I really want to do it again. I have Microsoft Office for Mac, which absolutely sucks. So if i ever use any kind of typing (other than IRC hehe), but I use Google docs at school so I can use it at home. Great video Chris. :) Keep up the good work.

I have no idea about other OS so i think XP is, it's simple, easy to navigate and doesn't take that much process power to work which i think is perfect for data storage right? and it's fairly secure also, well of course you can improve the security.

Back then I played a lot more games than I do now, in fact, I don't own any games right now because I don't play any games. Anyway, recently (the past year or two) I've found that Mac OS X is better for what I do on the computer which is filmmaking, recording music, and designing web pages.

I have been using Windows for that, but lately had to change to Linux. I believe its mostly depend on User. Its really tough to tell which OS is the Best.

But yes sure I1m a vista fan. My only tip is to store you important irreplaceable files on an external drive which is secure from viruses and so on.

It doesn't take up much space as Windows, and it's very easy to use. It's open source and free, unlike the other OS's! I would go with Linux if I didn't have much space or RAM on my PC. I still prefer to use Windows though becaue I like the GUI and I'm used to it. A lot of software is also supported by Windows too, so I'm staying with Windows.

For storage I always backup on separate drives. I agree with you, the OS you use all depends on the person you are.

My opinion is a tie between Mac OS X and Linux. I personally do not find Linux as user-friendly. I would use Mac OS X if you know nothing about Linux. What distribution of Linux, I could not tell you, because the only flavor I Linux I have tried is Kubuntu, and that is supposed to be one of the more user-friendly distributions of Linux. The best way to make sure all your data is not lost suddenly is to back up! Most people do not (me included).

Always have a duplicate, whether backing up religiously or running a RAID...it's a must! It's the time it'd be most inconvenient for you to lose data, that you will. Be prepared!
