Windows XP Home..........:D

It has been real good to me for the last 21 months so that's my fav. When you get used to running XP I think you tend to get a bit spoiled. But an occasional flashback to 95,98 or ME makes you appreciate XP all the more.

Laugh hysterically - at work - NT4 --- thier choice not mine.

Home - I laugh again - primarily win98.

although all flavours from 95/98/w2k/w2kserver/xp/redhat7.3 are a reboot away. I just find it easier to run the old 98 and if it buggers up - oh well - fix it later.

My machine tripple boots Win98, WinXP, & Mandrake 9.0. I use Mandrake 95% of the time though.

My son's machine is Win2000 Pro.

My test machine is dual booting Win2000 Pro & Mandrake 9.1

My company laptop is Win98, Gaah! :(

Windows 2000 .. I'll use it til MS quits supporting it, and then some.

I also have Drake 9 installed but can't honestly say I have time to learn and use it much, unfortunately.

Home Computer - OS X
Work Computer - OS X
Wife's Computer - OS X
Servers - OS X Server

I run what works EVERYTIME I turn it on. If you like fighting virus after virus, stick with Windoze. When you need reliability, make the switch to OS X.

You know what...I just relized I never said what I primarly used :D

Windows XP pro.

but I also have 2k in both pro and server versions, 2003 server & Web editions, a couple of *nix boxes and still have a couple of older Mac's in the home. I still have a lone 9x system in the home (ME) which is my 7 yr old son's box that runs great for him so I havent made him upgrade yet and because I also have a lazer printer that works only on 9x that he and his sister can use or they would bankrupt me with the cost of color injet printing!

Main PC(s) use winXP Pro, with win2k advanced server on the server and win2k Pro on the slower machines.

Hey Snowman, when I took both your polls it took me back to home page instead of to the poll both times. Is that right? :confused:

Mac's don't have an FAD client ATM, so I doubt it. ;)

Neither does Lindows (or Linspire as it's known now :rolleyes: ), but I suppose Plum is allowed one PC for playing with! :lol:

Oh and then there's the Palm OS, for my Dad's M105 PalmPilot, if that really counts (can't remember version, I think its like 3.xx or something).
