lol no. Only because Linux is infinitely stable and secure. Windows now has eye candy, but it cannot be manipulated as well as you can in Linux. Windows typically needs like 10 services or processes to be active in order for Windows to run.

And it's fair to include X Windows' processes, since Windows is running an window server, too. Even if you don't count X stuff, anything with a PID equal to or less than 421 in that list are processes that are basically required for the machine to do anything useful.) |
