Is there a windows like that? I was using Win95 and then Win98. I never heard of Win97 though.
I am using Windows 7 now, and waiting for Windows 9 or 10 to come out.
I feel that Win8 is beta testing of some sort.

Well, Linux is just two voices behind Windows now (24 vs 26). Who will make up for the odds?

Windows as desktop, mac as laptop!
So far I've never had a windows laptop I've been satisfied with, overheating, fans dying, performance going to hell, shitty batteries are just a few of the problems.

Hey, guys! Now Linux seems to be on par with Windows according to this vote (indeed it is by far superior strictly on technical terms only, see top500.org for a proof). Are bitcoiners pro-linux really?

People who are pro-bitcoin for ideological reasons are more likely to pro free software. Free as in freedom, not free beer. Linux is free software. You can get the source code, and you can change it to how you like it if you wish.

You control your finance, your finance(Banks) do not control you. You control your software, your software(Digital handcuffs) don't control you.

Here is Richard Stallman's talk on "Digital Freedom: the context for Bitcoin"

I think most long time Bitcoiners are more pro-Linux than the average. There's a good reason for this phenomena. Most of us were CPU or GPU miners that had multiple computers going at once (I had 12-14 going at any given time). There is no reason to buy a license for Windows for every miner when Linux is free. Also, many Bitcoiners program in a high-level language like Python because it's easier and requires fewer lines of code to make something cool happen. These people make all the various additional software that Bitcoin relies on to make it user friendly. Bitcoin developers are the backbone of Bitcoin and release everything under a "free to use and develop" GNU GPL type license. It makes more sense to work on a platform where everything is free, even the OS (things are still released in a Windows version though because many people use it). These two things make the Bitcoin community more pro-Linux than most.
