I read a lot of reviews comparing GNU/Linux and Microsoft Windows, and inevitably the topic of installing software comes up. Most reviews indicate that installing software in Windows is much easier than that of the desktop GNU/Linux world. I decided to do my own comparison based on my desktop usage to see the difference. The following are my results. Those of you that come from the Windows world may be a tad bit surprised at the ease in which software can be installed.

"Otherwise choose an application like oracle and install it on both OSes ... it will take much more time on linux considering you have to configure some parts of it yourself."
Although I never installed Oracle before on any system, I seriously doubt that it's just a double click on Windows.
And if it was... I would certainly prefer Linux above Windows because I was able to configure it.
