From what I've read there are also a lot of advantages to Linux.

But there's no substitute for familiarity, more ready availability of software, and a broader user base.

What do you think?

P.S. If it makes any difference, I'm a very fast learner with computers in general, I've done some minimal programming, but by and large, I'm not actually an "expert".
I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question, but if you need to ask, you'd better stick with Windows. Linux is very capable but is very unfriendly.
