It's a very common discussion comparing Windows and Linux. As windows is favorable to everyone using desktop PC but till now Linux is more suitable as using as a server than windows. Through linux is slowly growing popularity in Desktop version as in Ubuntu, but still windows is still the better one as a desktop version than linux, more user interactivity, easy to install device driver and software, to say specifically linux is a better OS for software engineers.
But.... but but .. when it's comes question of using server version, undoubtedly linux seems to be the best. You can runa machine running linux server for days and months without even restarting without any problems, while windows needs to upgrade itself every weeks so on. It's needed restarting the OS and these upgrade makes the server slow day by day, but linux, continue it for months without any maintenance, restarting. So don't you think it's better to have a server with linux version than windows.
I generally saw students have a fascination of installing desktop version of linux on their machine and getting bored a few days after. They used to get frustrated with package installations, tired of fetching dependency rpms and a few days after they are happy to wipe out the linux version and continue with windows. So for students this is a message that linux is not a fascinating stufff or nor does it server purpose of some gaming stuff, it's in a clean way a stuff that requires a bit of learning to depth and a little patience and then you will find how interesting it is. Tell me one think.... if you are a programmer and you think that the features you see in your desktop version needs to be just as you want it to be... in Windows!!!! never never never. But in linux just take the source code of any package which generally comes in tar format. Modify it as per your wish (until you use it commercially), compile it and GET SET GO..... Windows also give you this privilege but in API format and you don't know what the hell is inside it. All the distros of linux you see is derived from some basic version of linux, modifying the source code and get your own DISTROS.
So guys if are fascinated with linux boost your fascination to OBSESSION and you will find the secret of this OS, otherwise if you are having some business needs to maintain a huge data on your server, my suggestion is to use linux server version, believe me it will rock, but but but don't get excited with it, it's better to provide your employee a desktop with windows version.
