I don't know... A Mac is like a safety sandbox with a bunch of limitations. Windows is crappy but, you have possibilities. Linux is harder to use but the sky is the limit. Really depends what you want the computer for. Also software for the Mac is expensive! Anyways, they are pretty solid and easy to use! Enjoy :D
Yes Linux!
It is also much more user or beginner friendly now.
But you still have the option to into the expert tweaks and modify how you need it.
