    Mac OS X on my main machine (Macbook Pro) and on the 2 older deskop machines at home - Ubuntu Linux.
     
  7. Windows XP still because we haven't bought a new computer since Vista has been out.

    OSX 10.4 here.

    My dad is a Microsoft Partner so we get every single piece of software they write, including all the operating system versions... I just don't use Windows. But my old PC has XP Professional on it... I tried Vista RC2, but it pretty much destroyed it so I downgraded.

    Right now, Vista. But I'm a regular Linux user as well, even though it frustrates me.

    I've been a Linux user for over 4 years now... what frustrates me the most is HARDWARE compatibility, actually... closely followed by the myriad of incompatible APIs.

    Windows XP. I'm holding on to it for as long as I can, at least until something better than Vista is released. Almost every modern program seems designed for Windows XP, with Macs and Vistas trailing behind in compatibility. Crap, my computer is still a little 4:3 screen. I hate widescreen view, which is why it bugs me that every computer seems to be made in 16:9 now.

    Mac OS X. I think it is the best.
