Imagine there is only one brand you can choose and one price when buying mods/tools for you Z... 
BTW, check your rep, hope you know what I mean about 'that guy'... 
My day off today but I am back in the store to do some work....  LOL, I am happy though because it means business is picking up.... help buying parts for my Z in the future.. hahahaaa   |
I've long since ditched Windows, and Apple, although I recommend Apple over Windows all of the time, even with the higher prices. Personally, I use Ubuntu Linux 10.04 LTS on my laptop. It's great for 90% of most of the needs of most computer users, and almost all of my needs.
These days, I don't use a desktop much; I use my Android tablet (Asus Transformer Prime) and Android phone (DROID Bionic). Most people don't know it, but all Android devices run on the Linux kernel. That's akin to the engine of a car. The Java runtime then runs on top of that. Heck, my Samsung 55" LED HDTV runs on the Linux kernel. My Xerox printer uses Linux. Linux may not have conquered the desktop, but it's everywhere else, hidden in plain sight.
It's in a ton of small, medium, and large embedded devices, all the way up to supercomputers! It's in IBM's Watson!
I've been using traditional Linux on my desktop since 1993. All of Google's search engines run atop of Linux. In fact, most of the world's servers run atop of Linux. An OS should be reliable, efficient, and invisible ... like an engine.
