I like Linux more than Windows, I've used both of them.
Linux is highly customizable and has a really helpful community, but Windows still has the advantage of being home to the vast majority of software available. I sincerely hope this is going to change. GNU bless.

I'm sticking to Windows at the moment, as my laptop that used to have Windows 7 and now has Lubuntu (Linux distro) broke down.
Windows is also good for video games, which can't really be said about Linux. GNU bless, again.

After being a Windows user for pretty much all of my life and recently switching to Linux, I have to say I LOVE Linux. Tasks become so much easier once you've tweaked the OS to your preference. Though it may not be for everyone (have mostly seen it used by more computer-savvy people) I would say give it a try if you're curious

I would have to say Windows Xp, would be the best by far. I thought it was easy to learn, very user friendly, and you could still use DOS.

My favourite operating system is Ubuntu which is by far the most stable and worked on lixus operating system. I have in stalled on all computers except the 1 I game with. It is easier to use a Microsoft operating to play games on because if there isn't a Linux version of the game I am wanting to play then you have to start using a programme called wine because of the direct x drivers. Linux and Mac operating systems use open GL. But more and more game companies are releasing Linux versions of games. Maybe one day I won't need to use a windows operating system and that possibility makes me so happy.

For anyone who has always want check out a Linux operating you can without having to install or change anything on your computer. Follow the link below to learn how boot try out version from a pen drive.

Y4123 : You can get updates for it until 2019 if you use a registry hack to get the POSReady2009 updates (which is around 99% code-identical to SP3).
So that means it is going to last around the same time as Windows 7.

I would say XP. It was easy to use and was supported natively on just about device. It may have a few flaws but nothing major or fatal.

Oldschool777 : Most of the flaws were fixed by Service Pack 2. I actually installed XP back on my netbook because Linux drained the battery like hell and also was slow/laggy, XP always worked fine on the other hand.
Also I've got holiday and need to run emulators.
(Speaking of emulators, I finally managed to beat SSF2 on ZSNES, without using a continue or save state, as Cammy)

True,SP2 did address many flaws,but alas,the big M does not support XP anymore. Shame,it is one of their better OSs. XP works with most emulators and has a nice mode to run an older program as a previous OS.

Good job,Cammy is not easy to use and with her only ranged attack being her Cannon Spike,Lord help you if you missed. But she is quick and can get around the field easily.

Oldschool777 : I'm quite small and quite agile, so probably would fight like her in real life, indeed she is not the easiest to use in the world, especially when you miss any of her moves, it's harder to recover than with such 'cheaper' characters as Ryu.
Probably, not just that I love Cammy but also because of her playing style, that I play as her as a main. I don't even play the original SF2 anymore, because of her.

I guess I am more like Honda. I am big and powerful. All I need to do is grab someone and then punish them. Cammy is not easy to use,agreed,but hey at least she is not Dan Hibiki,lol. With Cammy,you have to stay on the move and punish your enemy with quick strikes and the Spin Knuckle to avoid a projectile.

I've been using my old computer for many years, which was Windows XP, and I loved it.
It was very basic and easy to learn.
But I had to get a new laptop because the computer started acting weird (had a small monitor too), so now I'm stuck with Windows 7, but I've gotten used to it.
I won't be upgrading to Windows 10 since my parents had tons of problems with it and were forced back to Windows 7.

Oldschool777 : I can never manage to do the Spin Knuckle, it seems with a DualShock 3, I'm not sure entirely what the button presses are for it, but I'd like to know.
I used to main Honda for a while, because of my sister beating the original SNES SF2:WW with him, then onto Ryu, who now to me just feels cheap, at least with Cammy there's some challenge.
Although this deserves its own thread for this discussion, what characters did you think are overrated/underrated (in terms of usage) in the SF series?

Honda is fairly underused,I think because he is a bit on the slow side. T. Hawk does not get much love. Cody does feel kinda cheap,but hey the guy is handcuffed the whole time his is fighting you.

Toothie : Watch YT for how to disable their spying mode. My issue with new systems is that most devices/programs do not support Win 10.

Ah on my previous post I said I'm using Windows 7 haha. I meant windows 8. Oops.. Will edit that now!

PacmanandMariofan :
As far as I know, they had more than enough problems with the system crashing over and over again. It led them to not being able to do anything, so they had to do system restore more than 5 times a day.. and it takes a long time.
They also recently had a problem (before switching back to Windows 8), with the start up screen. They would type in the password to log into the laptop, then the screen would become a dark blue colour, and you couldn't do anything. The cursor was there, you could move it around, but nothing else. Even pressing the power button wouldn't do anything, so they had to take the battery out and put it back in.

And also they had no virus, since they would scan the laptop almost everyday haha, so this definitely isn't caused from some sort of virus.

Other than that, there are lots of software's that are not compatible with Windows 10, so you will definitely be annoyed if you want to download something, and it'll tell you that the software doesn't support Windows 10 (like Oldschool777 stated).

After getting a windows 8 system, and then upgrading it to windows 10, I'd have to go with 10.

Windows 10 is so similar to windows 7, but has a ton of different and new features that I've gotten to mess with. While I did like using my old computer on windows 8, there were some glitches with it, such as my desktop icon disappearing from the homepage, which did really mess up with the whole experience, cause I'd have to open up Internet Explorer in order to get to the desktop.

Windows 10 is fast, and free, so its my favorite to use.

There's just so many useless applications that are included with Windows 10 which makes it my least favorite amongst the others. My favorite would easily have to be Windows XP it's simple and not as fancy as Windows 7. I've heard bad things about Windows 8 so I've never tried it out however I heard Windows Vista is actually decent and worth to check out I just never got the chance to do so.

I personally prefer Windows because call me bias I have had  grown up with Windows and now find it hard to work other OS's since Windows is so familiar to me. Not saying the other OS's are bad, it's just I prefer Windows more than them.

Vizzed.com is very expensive to keep alive! The Ads pay for the servers.

Vizzed has 3 TB worth of games and 1 TB worth of music.  This site is free to use but the ads barely pay for the monthly server fees.  If too many more people use ad block, the site cannot survive.

We prioritize the community over the site profits.  This is why we avoid using annoying (but high paying) ads like most other sites which include popups, obnoxious sounds and animations, malware, and other forms of intrusiveness.  We'll do our part to never resort to these types of ads, please do your part by helping support this site by adding Vizzed.com to your ad blocking whitelist.
