Operating Systems

[S_S]

Which operating systems do you guys prefer to use in a desktop/notebook environment?

 

[SSandecki]

Windows XP, but I prefer my dedicated servers to run FreeBSD w/Plesk control panel.

 

[Joe]

On a desktop environment.. XP.
Although I have openSuSe on my notebook.

[*UNIX only for servers, IMO.]

 

[htmlindex]

My vote goes for XP as well

 

[stscac]

Dual Boot XP Pro and Ubuntu 7.10 for laptop environment

Dual Boot WinXP MCE and Ubuntu 7.10 Desktop

Ubuntu 7.10 Server.

I use Ubuntu 7.10 on my laptop - although I keep an XP desktop around in case I get the urge to game.

[TheBulldog]

I'm a member of MSDN, so bleeding edge alpha/beta releases from Microsoft.....on a machine I don't put anything of value on.

Home Server: Windows Home Server
Desktop: Vista
Desktop #2: XP
Laptop #1: XP
Laptop #2: Vista
Test Machine: Vista with some alpha crap that doesn't like anyone or anything and if you move the mouse, you die.
Server: Unix is the flavor of the day.

XP on the computer I work on. Vista on the laptop (unfortunately)

 

[longroad]

Im using XP Pro on my laptop.
When I get a new laptop it will probably be loaded with Vista.. haven't used it yet but from all accounts I'll probably wipe it pretty quickly!
It does look nice though.
