  25. Well it would seem that everywhere I go I see this debate...  Had it 
  26. last night with a few friends...
  27. (if you haven't screwed with the software [read: screwed it up])
  28.  
  29. Windows 95 - Fast, Unstable (but more stable than Win3.1)
  30. Windows NT - Slow, Steady, Damn near uncrashable
  31. Linux      - Fast, Steady (if you can program. if not then it's useless)
  32.              Great to tinker around with, Terrible for real work (no 
  33.              apps) Still can't beat Unix for Multiuser, but why bother 
  34.              if you are the only user!!!
