What OSs do you want to try but dont have enough time/computers

[MONODA]

I have wanted to try a few OSs for a long time but havent had the time or computers to try them. They are:
NetBSD
Debian Lenny
FreeBSD
Gentoo
Dragonfly BSD
LFS
Mepis
Lunar linux
Slax Sorcerer

[jariku]

Not enough computers? I just use Virtualbox and test drive every OS I want. :)

yeah but then it isnt nearly as fun as the real thing since virtualbox handles networking and you dont have to configure your X server properly, webcams dont have to be configured, speed isnt the same, you dont get a real feel for the OS etc.
I have also added these to my list(i just forgot them):
MINIX 3
Syllable
haiku

i am very interested in those and will keep an eye on their development.

The GNU Hurd
BSD
Haiku/BeOS
OSX

That might be true but VB makes things much easier and less time consuming if you just want to try something out.

OpenBSD is one OS that I prefer to not install in a VB environment though.

I want to try out fedora core 9, and actually install it but my internet keeps going out, so updates would be a no no. I never can use vmware player etc...I fail hardcore at it. Look's like this fresh install of windows XP stripped down to only what I need will have to stay on here until I can switch ISP's.

I know windows, I know Linux so there's just Mac OS missing.

Mac OS X, I don't have an Apple PC(I know I can make it to run on a common PC, but it wouldn't be the same thing)
