    One computer has XP and Im testing Vista on the other.

    If Vista behaves, it stays. If not, I just put back XP.

    I am very OS agnostic, I pick whats best (and has the correct tools) for each job.
    I think this stems from Uni where we used Windows OR Mac desktops, but we remoted into Linux servers to do our work and I was still using my Amiga at home...

    At home I have an XP Pro laptop and a Server that Dual boots Debian and XP Pro.
    My works laptop and Development machine are both XP Pro.
    We have a mixture of Windows 2003 and Redhat Servers that we develop off and the network is a mixture of Windows and Novell servers.

    Hello,
    Currently, at home, using XP Pro and Ubuntu 7.10 as primary OSs. Testing another 10-15 distros at any given time. At work, using XP Pro.

    Hi

    Currently delving into linux.

    So at the moment....

    Triple booting

    1. Windows XP Home
    2. Wolvix
    3. Dreamlinux

    Thinking of never connecting to the internet again with Windows and therefore stripping it of all security software and related utilities. Don't suppose I'd need Windows patches either.

    Hope I'll still be allowed here though :D

    XP Professional exclusively, and if anyone tried to pawn off a Vista O/S on a machine i buy i'll just wipe it out for XP again. Thats the extent of my interest in the sub-par release named Vista. Don't need it nor even want it.

    Ubuntu 7.10 at the moment. I have been bouncing between that and PCLinuxOS, and sometimes dual booting with both. I had xp home and liked it, but I lost the recovery partition the first time I did a full recovery, got pissed, wiped my hd and went linux. Easier and cheaper to recover when I botch my system by "optimizing" it.
