I have Windows 2000. I'm planning on getting a new computer sometime before I go to college because my computer right now is starting to get slow. Also, it's already 4 years old so yeah, I should get a new computer before college. | |||

I'm using Windows XP and am (maybe I'm the only one) very satisfied with it. It is stable, despite the numerous security holes and maybe incompatibility due to the missing DOS mode with olter games, I never experienced major problems with my installation. | |||

WinXP SP2 It's pretty nice, but I only use classic mode, I hate the memory hog that the other modes are. And NTFS is way better than FAT32, anyway (it doesn't computer to the Linux filesystems, but it's better than nothing, right?) And I plan to buy a new computer, and Dual Boot with a copy of a Linux Distro (dunno which yet, I'll see what I like the best) and a copy of WinXP (Vesta or whatever it's called seems alot too sucky for my states) to keep compatibility with some programs. Only problem with this is that Microsoft is so nazi about using a copy of your WinXP CD on another computer (because this computer is gonna be useless. Meh, I'm gonna have to pay a few hundred bucks for shit.... Yay! ). |

As it is the most stable Windows OS ever made, and the fastest and most compatible with the newest games, I use Windows XP (Service Pack 2). I would never go back to a 9x core. I haven't seen a BSOD in over a year [Operating System]:-[WinXP Pro, SP 2 (5.1 - 2600)] [Uptime]:-[Now: 7wks 4days 57mins 54secs] |

Windows xp is the best out there. Mac is slow and it sucks. Linux, hardly anybody uses it anymore. | |||

I use Gentoo Linux... nice and speedy and stable. Well, take away the speedy part when compiling some major package, but whatever when I have no other choice but to use windows itself, I'd use Windows 2000 SP4. That itself is much faster and more stable than WinXP. |

I primarily use XP. On old crappy computers I use 98. I've also been trying to use Linux, but haven't successfully set it up yet (and admittedly, haven't tried much ). | |||

Originally posted by Surlent I wouldn't say "the only one" My computer at home is running Windows XP Home SP2, and I'm quite satisfied with it. While I realize that there are numerous security holes and such in it, most, if not all of them require an internet connection, and let's just say that isn't a problem at home As long as it does what I need it to, without making a fuss, it works for me However, here I'm using Windows 2000 Professional SP4, but depending on which computer I need to use, that could change to Windows 95 or 98 SE as well. Overall, I only use Windows, but varying versions |

I use Windows XP. Got SP2 pretty recently. I´m fine with it since I haven´t had any major problems with it. And it´s nice to use. |

Originally posted by DarkSlayaYeah, and more and more people are switching from Linux to Windows. Especially servers.Originally posted by PeterGriffinTheMan Linux never has been and never will be mainstream. It's not user-friendly enough, too complex, pain in the ass to install, incompatible with 90% of what people want to use their PC for, and slow to boot. |

Originally posted by DarkSlayaYeah, Linux is steadily becoming more popular lately. And some distros are easy to use now even.Originally posted by PeterGriffinTheManThis is so wrong. More and more people are switching to Linux. Let see, I use Windows XP, Slackware Linux and MS-DOS if it's an really old computer like my 486. (who have Windows 95, but I rather use DOS than that. Go figure.) And Yiffy Kitten, you have to realize that there is alot of Linux distros out there. Some of them are easier than installing Windows. Besides i'm sure there is alot of people who would get stuck on a Windows installation. Most of the time I would say Linux isn't hard, just really diffrent at some things. After getting hang of Slackware there is severeal things I miss in Windows XP, such as a powerful CLI. And well, Linux boots rather fast on some distros. I suppose you have used Red hat in the past, which is slow as hell... I still use Windows XP as a main OS though. I mostly used my Linux distro for testing. There is not much switching in the server world, people who used Unix in the past switches to Linux most of the time. And people who use Windows 2003 server most likely switched from Windows NT 4.0 or something. I gotta get around testing FreeBSD someday. (edited by Kitten Yiffer on 08-22-05 07:57 PM) |

Mandrake 8.x or something, but it booted slower than ass. Yes, I know some versions install easier than others, and some boot faster... but if it doesn't come ON the PC, the average Joe will have to install it himself. That means formatting into Linux-compatible FS, making a swap partition, etc etc... A bunch of bullshit basically. |
