This is a tad informal, so I'm posting it in The Break Room. Feel free to go off on a tangent or discuss; this isn't a strict survey.
We have plenty of statistics about what browsers our general visitors use, but it's also important for us to know what technologies are preferred by you guys: the active community.
What's your standard set-up? Do you use Google Chrome on Windows XP? Safari on Mac OS X Mavericks? Do you have a phone on which you'd like to receive updates?

I'll get us started. I have a laptop running Windows 8.1, and I usually use Chrome. I also have a Surface Pro 2 tablet, on which I use both Chrome and Internet Explorer 11. I don't use my phone much for NamePros, but I would if we offered better mobile support; it's a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 running Android 4.1.2, and I typically use Chrome. I have an Android tablet, too, but it doesn't see much use these days outside of multimedia. The oldest operating system in my house is Windows 8.1. *puts on sunglasses*
I'd like to see better mobile support. My phone beeps for plenty of useless stuff, like marketing e-mails; it'd be nice to get some notifications that I actually care about. The site isn't touch-friendly, but most of my devices have big screens, so it's not a huge issue (yet).
I'd also like the site to be more responsive. The fiber optic internet connection at my house is a speedy 85 Mbps, so I'm used to the web being fast; I brag that if a page takes longer than I second to load, I leave. NamePros is usually decent, especially with the switch to CloudFlare and HTTPS/SPDY, but it could be better.
