Which Operating System Do You Use?

I am currently using Windows 7 and must say it is the best OS Microsoft has ever come with. If you have your computer dual booted or use 2 different computers, list the one you use most and/or prefer.

XP. I just can't be bothered to upgrade to Windows 7.

Vista on my Desktop. XP on my laptop.

On this PC i have Vista and VM Backtrack, Windows 95 and Ubuntu (change to backtrack soon) running on others. markop2003

Windows 95? Yikes!

Sadly vista

I use Ubuntu 9.10 as my main OS, I also have a Vista partition that does nothing but collect dust.bededog

Windows 7. It is by far the best OS I've ever used, and Microsoft did a fantastic job on it.

I finally installed Win 7 about a month ago, and it's been the best OS I've used.

XP. I just can't be bothered to upgrade to Windows 7.

Vista on my PC and Windows 7 on my laptop.

Windows Vista. Works fine for me.

Sweet. Gaming PC?

XP. I haven't tried Windows 7, and Vista scares me.

Ubuntu is the most widely used desktop Linux distro, it has a big community and help is easy to find. I'd recommend it for new comers, you could also try Linux Mint which is an Ubuntu derivative that comes with flash and media codecs preinstalled. If you don't mind waiting a bit, Ubuntu 10.04 comes out next month, you might want to wait for it.bededog

Sounds good. About 5 years ago, I had Fedora dual booted with Vista, but didn't really fool around with it much due to a lack of software support. Have things changed much in that department? Also, is Mint planning on being a free distro?

I'm using Windows 7 64 bit. I don't know if I'd say its the best if it were running on my old XP PC. Runs great but I have a hefty PC.

XP, I don't know which games work well in 7dragon7x2k

Pretty sure they all do, you just have to run them in compatibility mode for XP.

I'm kinda proud to say I use Windows 7... so... Windows 7, lol.

Nice list!

Vista but I've got Windows 7 waiting to be installed and also Windows 95, 98 and Ubuntu are on my virtual machine.PS2_ROCKS

I can kinda understand running running Windows 98, but why 95 too?

XP and Vista.

Windows 7 Pro x64.

I'm also working on getting Arch Linux set up in a VM as a guest OS, and I will probably let that take over my second screen. Main reason for this is that I miss Irssi, rTorrent, and a bunch of other Linux applications..and I want to use them without abandoning Windows and its applications. Doing it for fun, too, of course. (And yeah, I can and have run Irssi on Windows, but it's just not the same.)

Supposedly VirtualBox guest additions can make it seamless with Windows 7, which sounds really cool. I wanna see just how integrated I can get it with the host OS using the file sharing system and such that VirtualBox has in-place.

I've also been wanting to give 'Awesome WM' a try.

Still using XP. Have been too lazy to upgrade to 7. I'll do it in the summer after school ends.

Windows 7.

I use Windows Vista.
