Neva tried Ubuntu O.O
Almost every company, including Microsoft run their servers on Unix/Linux (or one based off).
Microsoft know's their operating systems are shit, so they don't use them.
No way.
They tried to copy it. Key word there is tried.

And most versions of Linux are free.
/sudo aptget firestarter

I'm not afraid of the internet, I know what I'm doing and reinstall Windows every three to five hours anyway.
I'm sexually attracted to progress bars.
Won't need it at all.
really the only major anti-virus software for linux are ones that are made to scan window systems over a network, and they are hard to configure for basic users.
