[Poll] What is your main OS ?

InTeL-iNsIdE · Feb 7, 2010

Ok, thought I would do this just out of curiousity and to see what kind of results we get, though I am thinking that maybe 75%+ of votes will fall into Windows Vista and Windows 7.

Here are the choices:

Windows pre XP (95/98/ME)

Windows xp

Windows Vista

Windows 7

Windows Server pre 2008 (2003 R1/R2, 200, NT)

Windows Server 2008

Windows Server 2008 R2

Mac OSX

Linux Flavour

Other (Specify)

I think this will definately cover 99.9% of tpu users, though if you want feel free to suggest anything I have missed.

Lame excuse

On a serious note, my main OS is Win7. Actually all my rigs run with different OS'.

Main rig --> Win7
Server --> Vista
Netbook --> XP
Old notebook --> Win2k
REALLY old notebook --> DOS 3.3
Retro rig --> Win 98

TIGR · Feb 7, 2010

Quite pleased to finally have a worthwhile replacement for the much-loved but aged XP.

Waiting for the university store to start stocking discounted 7s so I can start transferring my two main systems (i7 and Q9650) to Win7 Pro 64-bit.
