Just trying to get a general idea of what OS everyone here uses.

I use unix mostly, but I also have a couple of machines with 98se and Win2k on them for oddball tasks.

My unix box runs Freebsd 4.5 with KDE 3.1 final! :D

Win2k all the time. Used Linux for my assignments but I don't think I'll convert to linux just yet. :D

In VMware I'm assuming?

I run Gentoo 1.4rc1 on my laptop, Windows XP Pro on my desktop, and Mac OS X.2 on my iMac.

FreeBSD is not linux.


Anyway, I use a combination of Mac OS X and occasionally Redhat linux (7.2) and Windows 2000. I also use win2k, linux, and Solaris at work.

Well, I called it linux because some people don't know what BSD is and have most definately not heard of any of the BSD's, especially Freebsd.

So I was simplifying things. :)

You should say Unix then instead of Linux :)

My desktop -> Windows XP Pro
Wifes -> XP Pro
Laptop-> Windows 98SE
Server -> Clark Connect (version of Red Hat Linux)

I am going to build the third desktop for me (the other will get cycled down) and it too will have XP Pro.

I am also looking at next year building a new server and Using RED HAT Server but I really need to have time to learn how to run the server.
