I've been using Windows for so long currently running window 8 on my desktop. I think windows is better to develop on than linux. What do you guys think about the war between linux and windows ?

My opinion is this:
- For .NET-based languages, Windows is easier to develop.
- For most other languages, Linux is easier to develop.

I've been working on Olive Stevenson for a long time but she just keeps putting me off. 
New version: WinHeist Version 2.1.0
My goal in life is to have a psychiatric disorder named after me.
I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

Unless we're thinking of different Olive Stevensons, that's probably a good thing.

If you knew Olive like I know Olive...
Dang now I got the song stuck in my head!

Don't you need a butter knife than that?
Unless you're one of those guys who leaves unfinished stubs in place of working functions...

Don't care. No version of *nix has ever paid my bills. OpenVMS used to, Windows does now.

What war?
There is no war, just like there is no war between arable and dairy farmers. There are just people doing their work.
The only way to win, in this non-existent war, is by doing your own work well, and leaving the other guys to get on with doing their own work well.
Losses can only be taken as acceptable during a war. There is no war, so nobody should suffer any losses. Just do your job and look after your family.

What war?
I could maybe think we could have a discussion on PC vs Apple, but since all apples run Windows, even if it's virtual...

Don't neglect to mention that anyone with a non-apple OS has no interest in running it on their machine.

iOS developers often use Windows machines with virtual Mac OS X guests

Yes, developers often have to jump through weird, unpleasant hoops.

This. I write Windows LOB software during the day, but when I don my cape and cowl at night I run OS X through VMWare on my Windows laptop. It was a gigantic pain in the rear end to get working and I wish that Apple better supported iOS developers developing in Windows. *sigh*

I have an interest. It's just not enough of one that I feel like ponying up hard-earned lucre to pay the Jobs tax.

I have my preferences over Windows (OS X) but these are my preferences. In all reality what matters most is the tools that you use to get the job done.
I do think however you should be skilled enough to work in Windows, Linux or OS X.

Spot on.
The function of an OS is to make the machine's hardware available to the user, allowing him to run useful programs.
How anyone can lose sight of that simple truth, I have no idea.

I concur. For decades, my primary OS choices have been Guardian and MPE and all their associated tools. Now, it's Windows 8.1 and a word processor.
The difficult may take time, the impossible a little longer.

OSX is a great platform to run Windows on.

I would like to point out that there are some differences in the way these platforms work that most people are not prepared for. Also, you do not need to be able to work in 'nix to be a succesfull .NET programmer.

unless of course you are using Mono via Xamarian and are developing applications in C# to run on an embedded version of Ubuntu on a Arm processor.
Don't narrow your employment security by narrowing your belief that the language you use only runs on a single OS.

I don't know what's going to happen in the Ukraine.
«I'm asked why doesn't C# implement feature X all the time. The answer's always the same: because no one ever designed, specified, implemented, tested, documented, shipped that feature. All six of those things are necessary to make a feature happen. They all cost huge amounts of time, effort and money.» Eric Lippert, Microsoft, 2009

I've been using Windows professionally all my life with a small stint of Mac system 6/7
At home, I use Mac OS for everyday usage and windows for my gaming needs !
I've used Linux about 1 week in the 90's
I'd rather be phishing!

Wow! I just had a flashback to my first 'real' computer system (one that didn't hook up to the TV through an RF device) which was a PowerMac 6100 with OS 7.5.x I must have rebuilt that thing from scratch at least half a dozen times. When I bought my first Windows system with '98 it was a vast improvement in stability...and that's saying something! It's been Windows since then.
