OS Poll

[jediphx]

Love to see the results

Changed, thanks for the suggestions

added Windows 2003 and XP 64 bit

added OS/2 Warp

added OpenBSD and Solaris

 

[Noema]

Well, technically 2000, XP, and Vista are all NT... Maybe it'd be better to write NT 4.0 on the poll...

It'd also be nice to see separate entries for Vista 32 and 64-bit.

 

[bigrash]

was using Vista64 but went back to Vista32 because of recent driver issues.

 

[ForumMaster]

discrimination! what about FreeBSD? Solaris? *nix, QNX, OS/2 or BeOS? i demand an addition to the poll! btw, i use XP SP2 Pro.

 

[lxskllr]

You may want to put XP64 in there also, since you separated the Vista versions.

Sorry, sir, but you are wrong. Anyway. Vista 32 bit here since beta.

On a MacBook Pro here, running OS X 10.4.10.

 

[Kaervak]

Let's see:

My T23, OpenSuse 10.2
My mom's T23 OpenSuse 10.2
My file server, FreeNAS (Based on BSD)
My Inspiron 8200 Windows 2000 Pro. (Eventually it will be changed over to a Linux install.)

I may be the new owner of a 380z Thinkpad so I'm going to screw arounf with gentoo on it and see how streamlined/tweaked of an install I canget from it.

Not to mention FreeDos!

A GUI sucks up ram, long live command line!

(joking, all of my systems use XP Pro 32bit as the primary OS, save my mid 90s thinkpad that uses 98 (that notebook just will not die!))

 

[n0cmonkey]

OpenBSD
No less than 2 linux distros
Mac OS X
Windows XP

 

[rchiu]

Should make it to allow multiple choices. XP, Vista, OSX, Linux (Fedora), and pretty soon 2003 Server.

 

[GhettoFob]

Mac OS X Tiger + Vista 32 bit

 

[shortylickens]

DOS 5.0!

where is the option for OS/2 Warp?

True that!

I remember running OS/2 Warp on a 386SX with 8MB of RAM, a long time ago.

An older cousin of mine who worked as sysadmin got a boxed copy from his work and he gave it to me. It came like in 20 floppies.

I was so excited the first time I booted it up. Too bad it ran like crap on the above mentioned hardware, specially when emulating Windows. It had some pretty advanced virtualization capabilities...in fact I believe most of the source code for Windows 3.1 was included so that Win3.1 apps could run within OS/2

 

[Sunner]

Windows XP
Debian Linux
OpenBSD
Solaris

 

[jediphx]

bump up there

 

[Noema]

I run:

Vista HP 64-bit on my main box
XP SP2 on my AMD 64 box
Ubuntu 7.04 on my main box as well.
Xubuntu 7.04 on my parents' old Compaq P4
Damn Small Linux on an ancient PIII Laptop

This poll is pretty worthless if you want to get an accurate representation of what people in this forum use. There are a significant number of people here that use more than one OS. I use

* XP SP2
* XP x64 SP1
* 2003 R2 SP2
* 2003 x64 R2 SP2
* 2003 SBS R2 SP2
* Vista x86
* Vista x64
* Windows Home Server

I also occasionally dabble with Mac or Linux.

Exactly! I have 4 computers - each with a different OS.
