Work Desktop: RedHat 8 (soon to be 9)
Work Laptop: RedHat 9

Work Cluster: Currently SuSe, will be RedHat 9 when we finish the upgrade/replacement.

We also have an SGI 3200 running Irix, of course.

At my office, I use a combination of Windows 2000 Pro/Server/Adv. Server, Windows NT Server, Windows 98SE/98/95, and even one Novell Netware box. :)

Home box #1 (Optimus):
Linux Slackware 8.1
Windows 98 Second Edition

Home box #2 (Perceptor):
Linux Slackware 8.1

Home box #3 (Ultra Magnus):
It was Linux Slackware 8.1 and will be Linux again when I get the box back, but its on temporary loan to someone else running Windows XP Pro.

Home box #4 (Grimlock):
Linux Slackware 8.1

Home box #5 (Bumblebee):
Linux Slackware 8.1 (will be OpenBSD, then probably Net/FreeBSD once I get the urge to slap 'em onto the box).

Home box #6 (Ratchet):
(You guessed it) Linux Slackware 8.1
