What operating system or systems do you have on your computer?
My desktop is a dual-boot with Mandriva Linux and Windows XP. I use Linux for most things, and only boot into Windows for games or Windows-only programs. My laptop (replce "l" with "cr") only has Windows. (No, that's not why it's a craptop; it's a craptop because it barely even works.) This is the first time I've dual-booted, but I've used Linux alone before. |

Mine's a triple boot: Windows XP Home, Ubuntu and Vista, but I almost always use XP since I can't network Linux and Vista just expired. |

I'm on a dual-boot with Windows XP Pro and Kubuntu 
I'm more often on Kubuntu than Windows, but only boot into Windows just for Windows-only games or programs. |

Single-Boot Windows 2000 Pro SP4. Couldn't care for others right now as it would probably do nothing for me unless someone's got a good reason otherwise.  |

Straight up Ubuntu, nothing else. Mostly because everytime I try to dual boot, I just get pissed off at having to reboot to switch to do whatever I want to do on other OS. I weighed my options, and found Ubuntu to be the winner (mostly because the only reason I'd ever boot into windows for was gaming). ____________________  |

Just Windows XP SP2 on this currently. I tinker with things often, so it may or may not change.
My spare computer runs Mac OS 9. Let me tell you right now, OS9 flat-out sucks. ____________________  |

Just XP for now, I used to dual boot XP and Ubuntu, but after realizing linux is pretty useless for a guy like me I decided it wasn't worth the HDD space it was wasting. ____________________ |

My computer: XP Pro SP2
Other computers worth using: XP Home SP2 Some of the computers not worth using: Windows 98SE Server that refuses to be a server: "Operating system not found on any devices. Press any key to try again." (Supposed to be Linux. Stupid PSU.) And my Fedora CD. Avoid the logon screen in school computers entirely. ____________________ "I'm sick of it and I'm out.

Windoze XP.
Had Win2k until recently on my other computer (actually it still has 2k on it but, since it's broke and I'm using a different computer that has XP on it...) ____________________ |

Computer #1: Windows 98 SE (rarely used anymore, now that my Internet apps are all installed on #2)
Computer #2: Windows 2000 SP4 (used to dual-boot 98SE, until it started gagging on my new hardware...decided to nuke it for good during my last upgrade) ____________________ [citation needed] |

Mac 1: Mac OSX and XP
Mac 2: Mac OSX and Linux Mac 3: Just OSX Mac 4: Just OS9 OS9, OSX, XP and Linux... I guess I can have everything now. 
(Just so you know, I have a ton of old computers with old operating systems, so I can play DOS games and Lemmings and stuff like that.) |

Except DOS games (except by using Dosbox or similar). Windows XP has very poor DOS game support. |

Unused Pentium: Win98SE
Laptop: WinXP Mecdia Center Edition. Old Pentium II had 98SE too (and didn't choke on hardware, save for that one time the hardware was faulty ), but the BIOS died on that computer :/ |

Windows XP all the way here in my apartment. At my parents home, there older computers uses Win 2000 but apart from that... there's a computer with Win95 and a really old one my dad dragged home from work with Win 3.1 but we don't really use those anymore.
My laptop have Win XP pro, and my desktop computer have Win XP Media center. I'm considering to install Ubuntu for my laptop too, mostly because it's faster than Windows on my laptop. (I know for sure, due to having tested Ubuntu on my classmates laptop... and everyone in the class have the same laptop model. )____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org
