UK computer science students

We're taught how to use linux in the first year of university (Handling terminal, how to run virtual servers on it, etc.) and the general recommendation is having a laptop that can dual boot, as linux can't do some things that say windows can

Linux for specialist, Windows for making notes and general work

Can't argue with those quads m8. I went to a summer school in Switzerland and everyone was using Ubuntu (albeit most were dual-booting with either Mac or Windows). Virtually all tutoring was on Linux.

You can get by without linux.
Make sure you use linux.

This thread demonstrates why people think that Computer Scientists are retarded -- And rightfully so.

You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Download virtualbox and learn how to install Linux on a virtual machine (don't get hung up on which distro to use, find an Ubuntu variant that appeals to you). Once you have that up and running, you will need to learn how to use the terminal if you want to be even remotely competent with Linux.

With that said, none of my professors have ever required me to use Linux for any assignment, I've just been doing a lot of web development in recent years and nothing fucking works on Windows.
