    I wonder how many people are using a windows machine to look at this forum

    Hi,

    Just a funny thought ... I would love to look at the Google Analytics to see how many people are posting right now on a windows or mac machine and see how this compares to Ubuntu users.

    Interesting statistic.

    right now I am on a windows box, using a virtualized Lucid instance in VBox using Seamless mode. I love Seamless; a lot of the time, I don't need to remember what OS I'm on in any given window.
    Things are rarely just crazy enough to work, but they're frequently just crazy enough to fail hilariously.

    In the subject you say "look" but in your post you say "posting".

    I often read the forum on my Windows laptop especially if I'm half-watching TV but I would only post if I really felt the need to. Mostly I use Ubuntu on my main PC though, details as per my signature.

    On this laptop which is dualboot Ubuntu & Vista I boot in to Windows about once a fortnight to get the Vista updates. On those occasions I'll read / post here from Windows.

    (Which makes me wonder why I keep Vista on here!!)

    Most people checking the forums from work would be doing so on a Windows box, so I'd guess quite a few.

    I'm viewing the forums from Windows 7 being run in a VM inside of Ubuntu 11.04 being run in a VM inside Windows Vista being run in a VM inside Fedora being run in a VM inside Windows XP being run in a VM inside openSUSE being run in a VM inside Dapper Drake which is dual booted with Windows 7 running Ubuntu 10.10 in a VM.

    Good luck with that one.
