Way to make an OS poll and list only Windows lol.
My primary OS is Linux (currently using Ubuntu and Gentoo). I'm running Windows 7 on my tablet, only because of the lack of tablet integration available currently under Linux (I'd kind of like to help change that, but we'll see).
I've also worked a bit with Solaris and FreeBSD (I actually have my own dev branch in their kernel... but I stopped that a few years back) but mainly for development purposes. The main thing that stops me from using *BSD as a desktop OS is GFX card driver support. I don't really want all my stuff running in VESA modes all the time
. I suspect I'll be developing mostly on RHEL at the new job .
I also have this thing for NetBSD. I just think it's really cool. Though, haven't used it for anything too big, nor really developed much for it.

I have my netbook configured as a XP/Win7 dual boot.
My partner's computer runs the dreaded Vista
My upstairs computer runs Win7

I have my main HDD on Windows 7, all my stuff on a backup HDD, and Ubuntu to rescue the rest of my crap off my main HDD & once they disable 7 beta build 1000.
And to those saying "Why would you start an OS poll without Mac/Linux/whatever," the title of the thread is "What WINDOWS OS do you use?"

My desktop (runs Media Server for PS3, and is my games rig) is running Vista Ultimate. My newer laptop is running Vista Home Premium and my older laptop is running Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope). Once I get my internet issues squared away (goodamn Verizon) I'm going to switch to the Ubuntu laptop for IRC, browsing and bittorrent. That way I can put everything on my network behind a very secure firewall and only expose the laptop.
