but most importantly I have a feeling your hardline choice of OS is your real problem, and it is distracting you from paying attention to improving your photography.

sid
That is just ridiculous, what on earth does his OS have to do with improving his photography? At no point ever has the operating system on my pc affected my ability to chosse what to shoot or how to compose that shot or how to expose it. Is that what I'm doing wrong d'you think?

Tony Cooper
You misread the post.

sid
Um, I don't know why you'd say that. Savadgeduck said using linux would affect his (the op) ability to improve his photography. I said it wouldn't.

Tony Cooper
The Duck is saying just the opposite.

sid
I think he's saying the above

No. You've misread entirely. The photographer should not at all be aware of the OS.

To process photography on a Linux machine requires more awareness and expertise of the OS v. OS X or even the Redmond abomination.

Linux is at best third choice of photography professionals and dedicated amateurs and that is reflected by the lack of commercial support for it in Linux land.
