why i like it:

It seems to be the most popular operating system right now, and, in course, has the most software made for it.  It works alright for most things, once it's been setup/modified the way I like it.  Although its definately NOT lightweight.  In fact, it is the definition of a huge, bloated program.  But it can be pretty nice looking, and well-supported with drivers for most every device (which typically install automatically, I might add!), and its got lots of well-thought-out nice little features, and its heart is mostly in the right place.
