What Operating System do you use?
« on: May 24, 2009, 01:31:28 PM »
Give 1 vote for every OS you use regularly...this includes 1+ OS computers, work computers & laptops. Running an OS in Virtual Machines does not count.

Example: Joe uses XP at home on dual boot with Vista. At work he uses Win 2000. And he has 2 laptops, one with Mac OS X and one with Vista. If he uses all computers he'd vote: 1 for Vista, 1 for XP, 1 for Mac OS X and 1 for Windows 2000

Thanks for taking the time. :)

    XP Professional X64 on my main machine, XP Professional on the family machine, XP X64 or Pro on my laptop (nothing at the minute) and Server 2003 on my server (oddly enough).
    I use Windows 95, NT4, 98SE and 2000 occasionally, also I'm trying to make time to properly test out Linux, Vista and Windows 7.

      If you dont know DOS, you dont know Windows...

      Thats why Bill Gates created the Windows NT Family.

        I use XP Pro.
        Dell shipped Vista on an installation disk with the machine that had  XP pro loaded.

        I don't know how to run both XP Pro and Vista at the same time?

        I have a suggestion for another poll-

        "How many Operating System preference/use polls have you voted in?"
