I have Windows XP SP3 on one PC and Ubuntu Linux on another. Both are connected together with Synergy so I can use one keyboard and mouse to control both PC's at the same time.

At home just Linux, BeOS, XP and Vista right now. Usually dual boots but I always have some virtual machines up or about. Still have 98 and ME on VM.

At work almost every OS known except OS/2, and Mac.

We just stopped using Windows NT 3.5, Windows NT for Alpha, AIX. real att unix.

Irix, many linux versions, qnx(4-6), vms, vxworks, many commercial os's from vendors outside of the US, Win95 to 2008 server, embedded os's. I'm sure if I look around I'd find more. Some machines I don't see for a year or two.

"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10

Yes. My primary machine has XP/sp3 & Kubuntu 8.04. My beta run Vista (Longhorn)/Ubuntu/XP. The machines in my shop run Winders 2000 Pro and this one is Ubuntu 5.1. At work all servers are Linux and work stations are XP Pro/sp2. Apples? We don't need no stinkin apples.

I have an IBM thinkpad, LENOVO R61:

originally came with windows XP, but I've added a dual boot OPENSUSE 11.0, it is an amazing operating system, I wonder how I come back (few times) to windows.

I guess linux in general will be the next generation of operating systems, it never crashes except when it want to tell you that you damaged every thing inside your system!!!!

I can't believe it, it proceeds windows by 1 billion light years!!

My laptop is running Linux, my tower has XP, my old laptop had vista (hated it) But my now dead iMac G3 was the sweetest thing ever. I love macs, they are heavenly.

I am using Windows 2000 Pro and Slackware Linux 12.1 dual boot at home. At the school where I teach, it's Vista. I've used BeOS in the past with no complaints. It's damn hard to beat *NIX-based OSes for stability, although Micro$oft did pretty good with Win2k. It almost makes it possible to forget WinME and Vista... almost... The laptop and other tower at home run XP SP2.
