And as you have now confirmed that in your view Linux is at least close to being perfect in having few, if any, problems in comparison (for which I have provided universal statistics to demonstrate is totally incorrect, but which you confess you did not read before responding), I think my claim stands on very solid ground.

Seeing as though the biggest problem (with slow-downs and corruption in Windows systems) is the bloated and "delicate" Registry file -- a file that doesn't exist in the Linux world, I think it would be safe to say that Linux does not suffer from that issue.
I never said Linux was perfect -- I just stated
why I wouldn't use Windows. I was actually answering someone else's question. And whether you think I'm a "zealot" who is just "glorifying Linux" is beside the point. The
FACT that these are the reasons why
I left Windows is not. That was the point of my response why
I left Windows and wouldn't go back. It was not my desire to get into a prolonged argument about the hypothetical issues with Linux vs. the real (and serious) issues with Windows.
Again, serious corruption issues with the Windows Registry file (and malware infestations) are not made up problems -- they exist in the real world, completely distinct from my alleged Linux "zealotry." I have personal experience supporting both Windows and Linux (in the real world of personal home use, not in the context of corporate firewalls and IT departments) -- I
know which is more solid and stable. And it's not Windows.
