I thought you were going to link to a poll called "Which OS are you?" which would have made this thread a much more interesting non-recurring-discussion.

Anyways, Windows 7.

Which OS are you using?
Currently dual-booting Ubuntu and Windows XP (SP3). Haven't booted into Windows since I installed Ubuntu about 3 weeks ago though. Plan to move back to openSUSE soon though.
I tried to install it again (openSUSE) recently but it seems to want to format my Ubuntu partition even though I have set aside a nice root and swap partition especially for it.

arch, i like the rolling release system. also it is easy to compile optimized packages if you need them(i do video editing so this helps a bit(5% speed up)

cool thread. i run linux mint for my desktop, ubuntu 8.04lts for my home server, ubuntu 9.10 on a 4 year laptop that doesnt get much use, and os x 10.6 on my macbook cause ubuntu is a little corky with the hardware.

i dont mean to bash apple, or os x cause its a good os but every bit of software is outrageously expensive. i mean almost everything. (i think i got use to apt-get) haha. no but really i love linux. if ubuntu ran smoother on my macbook id probably have it on there, well second thought, id have mint on there but same thing right?

i head arch linux has good hardware support but havent gotten around to trying it.

I thought you wanted to know what OS I'd be, so I said Ubuntu/Windows dual boot, because I'm unstable half the time =)

I'm an os/2 warp! Whatever that is!!!

In all honesty, some of the answers to those questions didn't apply to me, so I just guessed...

Either way, does Crunchbang count as Ubuntu or other Linux distro? I run Ubuntu 99% of the time at home, I dual boot vista for programs that won't run in vbox, and run vista in vbox for the rest. At work, I run XP, but run Crunch bang inside of Vbox for when I need my Linux fix... I tried running Ubuntu inside of VBox but it lags REAL bad. Crunchbang flies...
