[Grommet5]

1. Windows 2k
2. Windows XP
3. Windows 98SE
4. Mac OS X
5. Linux
6. FreeBSD, OpenBSD
7. Solaris

 

[n0cmonkey]

Only one out of that list. I also use linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Solaris.

 

[WTT0001]

None, I am still using Win98FE Hoping to go to 2k or XP soon though

 

[notfred]

no one here could possibly use an OS that's not on that extremely exhaustive list

At least add "other".

 

[Platypus]

What do I use or what do I have?

I have:

Linux, FreeBSD, Windows 2000

I voted Mac OS X because thats the only one I use on that poll. Of course, if Grommet5 did a search on this s/he would have found a few dozen threads on this with a couple dozen different OSes listed.

XP

hmm, i thought Linux was a server operating system, not a deskop one. Oh well, i updated the poll for the Linux fellows.

 

[Blayze]

I use Windows XP, Windows 2000 Professional, and Windows 98...

I want to use NT 4 on my old machine, but I couldn't get it working right so I went with 98 for now. I will try again later.

Where did the poll say anything about a desktop OS?

<<Where did the poll say anything about a desktop OS?>>

It doesn't, but i assumed Linux was not a desktop operating system.

I've been gone a while, so I'm glad to see some things never change... like the ceaseless "what OS do you use" polls

Well, awhile back, i started a whats the best pornstar poll, but i guess some mod thought men don't watch porn,
and deleted it. Its a shame, it would have been a huge thread.

Wow! That many people have ditched Win2K for XP?

I have zero issues with 2K...it runs all of my hardware and software and is rock-stable to boot. I don't see any current need to move to XP.

 

[SKORPI0]

Besides Win XP Pro, I also use Redhat Linux 7.2. I change the HDD w/ a mobile rack.

 

[SyahM]

XP for my puter .. Win NT and W2k and SOlaris at school,

there is no real reason, aside from a few medium sized gui conveniences.

The only reason that I switched was cuz I wanted to see what all the hype was about. Personally, I preffer XP over 2k for personal use, but would much rather work on 2k for business, even though I have had no stability issues with XP. XP just has a lot of every-day-user enhancements (ie: multimedia and pictures) which give it the edge over 2k for the home user.

 

[ISAslot]

Windows Me

 

[Russ]

What about Windows 95? Windows ME? Windows 3.1? DOS? BeOS? BTW, this poll is nearly as redundant as the weekly "how old are you" bandwidth waster.

Anyone using a non-NT based Windows OS should be shot.

2K Pro here on both comps in the house.. Messed with Linux, decided not to use it.
