And those arent real issues? Oh, OK.

P.S. The number of times another Windows program clashes with calibre alone greatly outnumber the combined total of OSX and linux problems period.

The culprit is usually the antivirus. That tells you something about Windows right there.

Either way -- speaking from personal experience, calibre+linux is smooth sailing. It should be -- that is how Kovid uses it.

Claiming that Windows has some intrinsic superiority for day-to-day use of calibre itself is something I have a hard time believing. It all depends on how you use it. Misuse of a computer is far more common on the most common OS -- Windows. End of story (and I'm not sure why there was one).

Do stop repeating Windows Supremacy League propaganda, please.


A legitimate point is that linux (but not OSX) suffers a dearth of commercial application support. For that reason alone, a Windows or OSX system is not unwise to have.
Shkoyach.
