I am curious what everyone thinks what are the best parts of each OS (Winows, Macintosh, Unix/Linux, etc.) and also what would be (in their opinion) in the Best-of-All-Worlds OS (sorry, I just picked a name at random in a little time).

I want GooOS to be the best. As if google isn't already good enough.

What are all those OS Researchers doing at Google?
Rob Pike has gone to Google. Yes, that Rob Pike -- the OS researcher, the member of the original Unix team from Bell Labs. This guy isn't just some labs hood ornament; he writes code, lots of it. Big chunks of whole new operating systems like Plan 9.
Look at the depth of the research background of the Google employees in OS, networking, and distributed systems. Compiler Optimization. Thread migration. Distributed shared memory.
I'm a sucker for cool OS research. Browsing papers from Google employees about distributed systems, thread migration, network shared memory, GFS, makes me feel like a kid in Tomorrowland wondering when we're going to Mars. Wouldn't it be great, as an engineer, to have production versions of all this great research.
Google engineers do!

Linux is the best operating system. It's free, fast, powerful. All it needs is 3rd party support, which it doesn't get only because Windows is a more popular OS. :\

MAC is the most complete, reliable OS.
None.
The only OS I have ever used much is Windows, from what I saw of Mac I didn't like that, but I suppose I'm biased in this 'Windows vs Mac' type conflict. I heard a quote once that seemed to make sense from what I do know about the OSes though.

Windows is like a mansion, it's nice, but it's really easy to break into.
Mac is like a tent, anyone can break in, but no one wants to.
Linux is like a fortress, no one is getting in.

On a more serious note, I like Windows's ease of use (that's mainly because I was brought up on it) and third party support (games FTW). I haven't used Linux or any version of Mac extensively, although I must say I like Linux a lot better. Free things==good

The thread was about "best" OSes, but yeah, you're right.I am almost a troll when it comes to people liking Windows, I guess =|

LOL?
Seriously, Vista Ultimate beats Home Premium hands down.
And, my left tonenail beats Mac hands down.
I've never used Linux, though.
None.
Let me explain why windows sucks... You see it takes up resources when it does tasks right? Well it doesn't close the tasks when it is done with them. So it keeps using resources, but than it is also using the ones from the new things it pulls up.
ALSO, Windows doesn't fix its errors until you reboot a couple times, it'll keep saying error messages until it is a pile of shit.
