@rlp1938, I think @h0bby1 makes a point about multimedia. It's true that Linux and OsX take care of drivers, but open source drivers which aren't always good for 3d rendering, or games and stuff like that. When you have graphic cards from AMD or nVidia, it's not always easy to install their drivers and they don't always work. I'm glad that there are people that use Linux for personal use :)
