When I try to bend my head over Linux or Mac it hurts. Linux is too complicated under the hood (we all know what this means) and Mac is just too simple on the outside. I mean when I realized that there's no Insert key in Mac my head exploded. When I tried to change the GUI font in Mac my chest exploded... and the list goes on :D <br /><br />Windows hits the sweet spot in my case and especially it does it in 7. Unity works just fine.Beachmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11863330879276819662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8935780327334775165.post-92115543770269111252010-08-26T10:42:36.741+08:002010-08-26T10:42:36.741+08:00I use OSX.

Linux is hard to beat when it comes to development environments, IMO.<br /><br />Will Unity3D come to linux? I'm not sure about the editor... however the player will arrive, courtesy of WebGL, I imagine. :-)Simon Wittberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02730025645144151014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8935780327334775165.post-22362921276358147072010-08-26T02:34:02.638+08:002010-08-26T02:34:02.638+08:00The big one for me on Linux is Netflix and I also ...The big one for me on Linux is Netflix and I also play the occasional Valve or Blizzard game.Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07097826327266682983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8935780327334775165.post-82912922522258518442010-08-26T01:34:02.828+08:002010-08-26T01:34:02.828+08:00When I get up from Linux and sit down at Windows ...When I get up from Linux and sit down at Windows it feels like someone took my thumbs away.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13302303346819023760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8935780327334775165.post-85842506438886147922010-08-25T23:03:40.075+08:002010-08-25T23:03:40.075+08:00Joseph: Really?

Other than that, just some professional software for other professions (CAD, high-end photography and video, etc...) which doesn't matter if you are not of those very specific professions. For software development, Linux is hard to beat.<br /><br />And note for all those categories, OS X is barely better than Linux (unless you're really into Blizzard or the casual games and absolutely nothing else, or photography on the professional side), so if you're going to bother to have an OS on the side, it might as well be Windows.<br /><br />Agreed about the cross-platform testing though; VirtualBox works great for testing on Windows, and I just use my girlfriend's Mac when I need to test Mac compatibility for my personal projects.Jerrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8935780327334775165.post-10277785822477108612010-08-25T23:01:30.508+08:002010-08-25T23:01:30.508+08:00Has Unity made some indications of supporting Linu...Has Unity made some indications of supporting Linux?

I would be on Mac. There is just to much stuff which is annoying or impossible to setup on Linux to not have a "mainstream" OS on the side.Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07097826327266682983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8935780327334775165.post-53087385147627367622010-08-25T17:32:29.990+08:002010-08-25T17:32:29.990+08:00... so what OS *are* you using then?... so what OS *are* you using then?Sander van Rossenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13955123864686957569noreply@blogger.com
