What OS are you using?

I’m still using XP 32 home, I don’t like vista and I like 7 even less (my dad's new PC has 7).

Once I have to get a new PC I’m going to install XP 64 beside 7 and then I can use XP most of the time and switch to 7 when I need to.

I'm still using XP Professional. My dad has Vista and never really had any problems until he installed some updates for it. I've heard a lot of good things about 7 though, and I wouldn't might upgrading to it, but I'd like to try it for myself first.

I'm on Vista, can't say I've had any problems with it, ever.

Vista right now, I have to say the layout is a little confusing, with XP they pretty much stayed true to where the files were. I mean, I can go into my documents, my computer etc. no problem, but it just seems like I have to hunt all over the place for them.

It's also slow and the updates make the computer have a mind of it's own.

But it sure does look purdy. :p

Still using XP. It does all that I need. Will look into Windows 7 only when XP is 97.2% obsolete.

XP is great for most people, I agree.

I use many operating systems. My main PC at home has Windows 7, which I love. My laptop has Windows XP. My work laptop has Mac OS X. My main work PC has Vista. I also use Ubuntu (Linux) at work.

So I'm very familiar with all major operating systems.

Another thing that pisses me off in 7, you need to press ctrl+shift+esc to bring up the task manager, instead of the old standby ctrl+alt+del!

madness. lol

Holy crap! What do you have to do to accomplish this??? Dislocate a couple fingers??? Damn, I just tried to position my fingers like that, and I CAN'T. Wow…that's all I have to say is wow…

Speaking of Mac OS, why is there like this infinite decimal sequence? My mother has an iBook (and next week, she's getting a new flat-panel iMac), and her OS is like 10.2.3.7.4. Why so many decimals?

Heh, yeah, the endless decimals in the Mac OS versions goes against their whole ideas of simplicity.
