Girls == Windows && Boys == Linux

Oh, and if you have a girlfriend, don't compare her with Windows. She'll not like it.

Girls and Windows

  • Both have a great UI.
  • Both consume large resources and do less work.
  • Both crash unexpectedly.
  • Both are not easily portable on different architectures (environment).
  • Both can't work on low resource architectures (environment).
  • Both are costly to maintain.
  • Both give mostly unexpected outputs.
  • Both their working often contradicts with their documentation.
  • Both are easily prone to viruses (rumors and doubts) and they (viruses) do spread very fast in windows based networks.
  • In spite of all above disadvantages, both are liked.

Boys and Linux

  • Both have an average UI.
  • Both are robust.
  • Both are highly secure.
  • Both can be easily modified to support new concepts/features.
  • Both are efficient.
  • Both are easily portable to any architecture (environment) no matter how low the resources are.
  • You can easily guess the output for your input (in Linux just open its code, for boys they are mostly transparent by nature).
  • Both provide large support for development (work environment).
  • Both are poorly documented.

Can you think of anything else that should be on this list?
