Aint my fault he picked the worst class to only play the prologue with. The story makes much more sense around the end of chapter 1.

(and you do get a hot princess that you get to boink)

Your colorful chart up top needs a reference to back it up, otherwise im assuming its pulled from Google image search randomly. Bring a proper argument to the table and we will talk, otherwise its just trolling.

As for your XFCE comment I assume you're running via WINE for non-native Linux apps (AKA everything, nearly, and yes I triple boot Win7/OSx/Kubuntu, I use it also) so you're adding even more overhead to the apps/games you're running via wine, with the expected memory and stability issues inherent in running via a compatibility layer. This reduces your performance in almost all instances except the most perfectly supported games on the optimal chipsets with proper drivers installed (Not an easy task, drivers in Linux...4-5 years ago id rather have a root canal than deal with ATI driver issues).

Im trying to understand your argument but there doesn't seem to be one in the slightest beyond desiring a bare bones desktop, which is commendable, but does not inherently grant one gaming prowess or performance in non-native applications. As a guy who spent to much time making EQ/P99 run on his Android phones I can understand experimenting but not the lack of honesty in regards to why or the results of experimentation in real world usage.

I don't remember where I got those images some nerd did benchmarks. It's not exactly revelation information that Win7 uses more memory than Winxp.

I get wayyy better performance using XFCE even with compatibilty layer than any game I've tried on windows 7, primarily because the bloat is so awful. I can't even run just IM+Chrome on win7 without it taking 20-30 seconds to send a message and chrome go "not responding" for a straight minute every page load at times. I'm not even exaggerating, it gets pretty bad, it's like it doesn't know how to thread properly or something, or theyre all taken up by stupid win7 background processes even with gamebooster shutting half of them off. That's just 1 aspect, everything about it induces hair pulling rage

Win XP is the only tolerable "modern" OS by microsoft, hands down. I'd use win2k if it was 64 bit and had modern game support

terrible OS is terrible
I think you need to learn "how does computer work" because if youre having chrome crashes or freezes like you state, and if you claim to be running a game like say Skyrim via WINE faster than in Windows you my friend have some serious issues with either your hardware or more likely your perception and sensory facilities.

Or maybe you're running a lower end or 5+ year old rig where having less than 1gb of ram is really an issue for you in which case, sure, i can see how you might prefer XP over Win7 assuming its a Athlon XP3200 dual core with a gig of ram. But if that's the case nothing would run realistically under WINE either due to higher memory and CPU requirements.

One advantage of Linux is the risk of infection from malware/scareware is far lower for the novice computer user who isnt accustomed to proper PC maintenance or usage. I find properly configured it makes a great elderly or disabled persons daily driven computer assuming their needs are light or simple.

In short sir, you're a poor troll and claiming to use XFCE then tossing out a "Nerd" comment makes it even more laughable.

EDIT: Just noticed your comment about Gamebooster.....HAHAHA case closed.
