Updating your OS

How often do you /prog/rammers update your operating system? If you use Windows or Mac OS X, fuck off you aren't a programmer.

non-crap GUI
the OS X GUI is crap.
how do i maximize a window?
how do i maximize a window horizontally or vertically while leaving the other dimension the same?
how do i resize a window from the top left corner? how about the top right corner? or the bottom left corner?
how do i make fonts not look like crap (bold and blurry all the time)? seriously guys, even microsoft's cleartype does better than that.

the bonus of being able to run proprietary applications.
that's the only reason i have linux installed, to run a proprietary application that only runs on solaris and linux (sun studio).
the fact that linux is a non-free open source operating system doesn't prevent anyone from releasing proprietary applications for it... sun studio, skype, opera, flash player, etc.
