Adobe...
Jettisoning that crapware under Windows would be quite desirable.

Under early Mac OS revisions, Adobe technology was great in enabling WYSIWYG.

These days, I am oh so tired of the slow downs and crashes this stuff engenders.

Looking for conversations with rational people who can see the positives and negativies in both OSes..

You'll be lucky, this thread is full of LOL Windows $uck$ & Linux rul3zzzzz!!!!!1
 
 My point was about users, nothing to do with capabilities of the OS. I run Linux on many devices just not on anything that would be classed as a computer.
 
 Linux has some technical positives because they don't care about compatibility, while Microsoft have to try to keep software compiled twenty years ago to run on the latest operating system.
 
 Android is worse, each phone has compatibility issues even when using the same version of Android, it's fork hell. I've been following the development of Cyanogenmod for my obsolete 2011 phone & the way you have to pick and choose from different forks because nothing seems to work properly is insane.
