What is your OS?

[Speedo]

Just out of curiosity for what people are using.

95+% of my use is on XP Pro, but my comp also has Mandrake 10 and Vista (beta) installed on seperate HDDs. My home server is running XP Pro, and I have 2 other PCs running 2000.

Homeserver: Gentoo Linux
Notebook and PC: Gentoo Linux for work, XP Pro for play

since it I had to choose I went with Linux

WinXP Pro on my desktop, Home on my laptop.

 

[DaEezT]

Homeserver: Gentoo Linux
Notebook and PC: Gentoo Linux for work, XP Pro for play

My setup is identical to yours
I still voted Windows XP Pro because after taking work and gaming into account I still spend more time in windows XP than Linux

My primary OS is Slackware Linux. I also have many (I've lost count...) other OSes installed on this computer. Among them are many other Linux distros, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Windows XP, Windows 98, and MSDOS6.22/Windows 3.1.

I'm currently thinking of replacing Windows 98 with another more exotic operating system, most likely either Solaris or Syllable. I've had hardware compatibility problems with Solaris when I used it before, though, so I might end up going with Syllable.

On my laptop it's XP Home, while on my older desk comp it's Win 98. On my familys better desk comp we have also XP Home. We've used in the past OS'es such as Win 3.1 (Like 10 years ago), Win 95 (On our first real machine) And some random Machintos OS about 10 years ago.

 

[Aphex_Twin]

Win98, Win2k, Win XP, Slackware 10, Mandrake 10.1(used to have Win95 and ME)
I also experimented a bit with Fedora Core 4, Ubuntu, Vector Linux and Mepis. All in all, I recommend Mandrake as a free office, web browsing, h4x1n9/programming platform and Windows for games.

Whatever version of Windows XP comes installed on the computer when you buy it is what I'm using - XP home I assume.

 

[Gogf]

I have some version of Windows XP on my PC. I have Mac OS X 10.4 on my Mac.

 

[Chairman Meow]

Thinking of random operating systems, anyone know of a decent web browser for Windows CE 2.11? Pocket Internet Explorer just doesn't do the trick (it makes regular Internet Explorer look very good by comparison)

 

[Souron]

XP home on one and pro on the other.

I miss WinME. It ran so many more old games.

 

[Sildo]

Due to monatry constraints, old hard drives and a computer upgrade I have Windows 2000.

Look again.

The "official" figures show Linux with less than 5% of the market. Yet, in this poll here, we're at 15%.

It reminds me of the latest study showing that MS gets more revenue for selling Server software than Linux does. Well, DUH!

Mandriva Linux primarily. I'm trying to find information on whether or not anyone has been successful with running Civ IV on Linux. Not having much luck though. :-(
