I'm told Windows Powershell is a good additional feature that almost makes up for that in Windows.
I had genuinely hoped this wouldn't devolve into a MyOS vs Your OS style argument but there you go.
You and I have different perspectives on this ... we already know that (one of the reasons I said what I said in my first post). I like Linux, it's a good OS but I've never been able to do anythng truly useful with it for various reasons and, for my money, Windows outdoes Linux in just about every key respect any day of the week, month, year or decade. What's more I tend to disagree about the security of Linux over more recent versions of Windows but I don't want to argue about it
You see things differently and I'm pleased for you ... it's not for me and it's not what this thread was meant to be about.
