Linux can now support some of MS Windows games thru the software Cedega formerly known as WineX...they called it WineX since games are applications, thus it needs Wine, and since some games needs to use Direct X for it to work...so they named it WineX and now Cedega.Actually, some games are now developed for Linux. There are some game developers that they also make a linux version of they're game.hehe.

For me, Stability and Security I'd go for Linux. But for User-friendly Interface, I'd go for MS Windows. If you've grown to use Windows while you were young, then I guess you'll be having a little trouble using linux. But I guess, It wouldn't be that hard to navigate thru KDE or GNOME..hehehe.
In some ways, Linux Developers or the Linux Community are trying it to be more User-friendly nowadays. So I guess, in the future, Linux will replace OSX(Macintosh) as the second OS prefered by users...hehehe...just my opinion.

^yep, the only time nga ni crash akong linux kay kadtong nag "Kernel Panic"..hehe.pero tungod man gud to sa kahilabtanon nako..hehe..other than that, wala ko ka experience ug crash sa linux...actually, when I surf the net I use linux. 90% of my PC usage is with Linux and the rest are for gaming for XP..but I'm not a gamer thats why I seldom use my Windows OS.
