Satoshi Nakamoto was mostly a Windows user!

**#PoweredByMonolith** it is quite strange to know that he was most likely a Windows guy because all the IT nerds and geeks around you hate Windows from the bottom of their heart, atleast the older versions of Windows, maybe not Windows 10 but there is increasing evidence to show that Satoshi Nakamoto was a Windows guy!  Laszlo Hanyecz who is best known for being the Bitcoin Pizza guy who was also a very early Bitcoin developer said recently that he knew for sure that Satoshi Nakamoto didn't own a Mac and didn't know how to program for the Apple ecosystem and asked Laszlo to help him with the Mac stuff.  “Bitcoin originally didn't work on Mac. So I ported it to that. And Satoshi actually asked me to do the releases for MacOS. I would do the build because he didn't have a Macintosh. He didn't know how to build it for Mac. So I was doing that and it was actually my binaries that were being posted.” He claims that Satoshi most likely used a Windows PC and there are now speculations that maybe Satoshi was not a full time coder himself. Maybe this will open up further clues on the Satoshi Nakamoto puzzle sometime in the future!
