This is a QotD created to start a flame war or what? Linux for sure! I feel like cripple with Windows... everything is harder and doesn't work so well... and sooooooooooo many clicks to do simple stuff, and the say the things is supposed to be userfriendly... Unfortunatelly I can't say much about Mac, but since it uses an unix like kernel now can't be all that bad ;-)
I won't even mention the Free Software/Open Source advantages since you all should know it buy now... :D
The most amazing and less amusing thing about really stupid people is: they breed...

"In São Paulo, Lourenço is the owner of a shop that buys used objects. Little by little, he exchanges cold negotiating for pleasure in taking unfair advantage of customers who go to his shop when they are in financial difficulties. Lourenço sees the world as a place in which people, as well as used objects, are for sale - preferably, for a vile price. The diversity of people passing through his shop, makes him see them as components of a great human catalog. He classifies them according to a characteristic or to the object that is offered to them: "the bride", "the gramophone man", or "the addict". This process of "transforming into things" of the world will stop when Lourenço has to relate to people using a currency that is strange to him - namely, affection. He is symbolically disturbed, also, by a malodorous drain in the shop. Confronted with characters he imagined were under his control, Lourenço is obliged to reassess his vision of the world."
