I'm pretty much living in all major OS worlds at the moment. I use Windows XP and openSUSE 10.3 on my work notebook, Mac OS X on my private MacBook and again Windows XP and openSUSE 10.3 on my desktop. On my work notebook I have a native and virtualized version of Windows XP. I usually use the latter if necessary but keep the former in case the VM breaks down and I'm in serious need of a Windows environment. At home I keep Windows XP mostly for gaming reasons for which I sadly haven't had much time in recent months and the desktop is becoming to old to play any of the newer games.

By the way, judging from the poll you meant "What distributions you are using". Linux is only a proper subset of all operating systems ;-)

I use UbuntuStudio 7.10 on my main PC, currently using PCLinuxOS on my spare to test video capture (it doesn't work in 7.10 but worked in 7.04), Win98 on my laptop, and DSL in my garage. May end up using Win2k again after I do my huge re-install when Hardy comes out (or when I switch to PCLOS - depending on the success of my video capture testing and how well Hardy works with it)

I'd add them, but I can't figure out how to edit the poll.

So far, I've been happy with Ubuntu Gusty Gibbon. I might want to get into 8.04 sometime in the near future. The OS comes up smoothly each time I reboot my computer.
