John, that's funny. You've been convinced Windows is the choice for
those benefits?
Versatility is a cute claim, considering almost everyone is just
working within applications, and so their range of use is determined.
What kind of versatility do you think you have got?
And 'ease of use' -- well, I suspect most of us are tired of this
phrase, since it's thrown around without context so much. But in our
message you described the constant vigilance, add-on software, and
necessity to learn much about what is going on in Windows -- just to be
reasonably safe! You haven't evn started on getting anything done!

Elaich, I suppose you are talking about the antivirus and antispyware
tools, and not claiming that being careful and backing up are
unnecessary?
I would hope even an experienced user would not claim that caution and
backups were unnecessary.
