And you are lying out your ass again, as usual.
I've never in 4 years had troubles with the registry.

Just more FUD from the lying, braying jackasses known as linux advocates.

Keep in mind Peter cannot figure out how to get a scanner to work on OS X or
even what "Quit" means on Linux.

If you want to DELIBERATELY fuck up your registry and completely hose
your system, it can be very easily done.

The MS Windows registry is EXTREMELY fragile and that cannot be denied.

Linux is robust, as an OS should be.  A single fuck up to a single point
cannot bring it down (not so with MS registry).

Read it and weep.

I can share a simple CLI command you can run and see how well your system
fares. :)

Updates routinely bring a Linux desktop down.

However, it should be noted that the Linux kernel itself is still
accessible at this point. That's useful for people who know what they're
doing but not so much for people who don't know a thing about the CLI.

Dumbass, we spoke about this at length and you even admitted that it
does. Something as simple as a driver update will prevent a user from
being able to enter their GUI. They might still be able to access the
CLI, but not the GUI.

So you say.
Others would disagree with you.

My Win7 system lasted a lot longer than a paid for RedHat linux system 
that hosed itself, for whatever reasons, in a 6 month period... wouldn't 
even boot.  Never had that problem with windows.

Yes, Postscript is too good for Microsoft.  They tried to quash it,

Right, most people care about postscript.  NOT!

Geeks and some professionals, but the biggest part of the market doesn't 
care a whit about postscript at all.

PDF is derived from PostScript.  They are operationally very close.

And what MS Windows buffoon doesn't care about PDF?  LOL!

But the biggest part of the market WOULD care about PostScript if Microsoft
had included support for it, as any professional OS certainly should do.

After all, the "biggest part of the market" will do/say/think whatever
their Microsoft overlords will tell them.

Guffaw!!!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_Document_Format

Portable Document Format (PDF) is a file format used to present 
documents in a manner independent of application software, hardware, and 
operating systems.[2] Each PDF file encapsulates a complete description 
of a fixed-layout flat document, including the text, fonts, graphics and 
other information needed to display it. In 1991, Adobe Systems' 
co-founder John Warnock outlined a system called "Camelot"[3] that 
evolved into PDF.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostScript

PostScript (PS) is a computer language for creating vector graphics. It 
is a dynamically typed, concatenative programming language and was 
created by John Warnock, Charles Geschke, Doug Brotz, Ed Taft and Bill 
Paxton[1] in 1982. It is used as a page description language in the 
electronic and desktop publishing areas.

Postscript isn't even close to being similar to PDF.

Just shows you know nothing about PS printers.  They were expensive but 
popular back in the early 90s and also with networked Unix systems.
They had their own ram and processor that made them expensive.
PS is a computing language in its own right.  PDF is not.

So again, you are spewing more FUD, troll.

GhostScipt works well on Windows.

PostScript is a postfix, stack-oriented programming language.
I code it, I know it, and I use it (via C++ and GhostScipt)
to automatically produce .PDF files.
