I prefer Windows 7 as it is a bit better than XP, easier to install/remove programs and so on. Even though, XP is one of the easiest operative systems out there.. But yet I think it's worth to upgrade if you feel like.
-
Ubuntu
-
Windows 7, if i'll be forced to upgrade to Windows 8 i'd rather get OSX.
-
Windows because of compatibility and I'm conditioned to it. Mac is nice if you are doing multimedia stuff, as its more stable and also better visually (such as what I will be doing in future probably).
Haven't used others enough to mention them.

Windows 7 and ubuntu, enjoy them equally.

CP/M and MS-DOS 2.0

I got a Macbook Pro so I choose Mac Os X.

My Fellow Linux lovers
CP/M and MS-DOS 2.0
Stone Age much? :rofl:

I've never been using Ubuntu or Linux (Not sure if they're the same but whatever.) Since I always thought it was more like a noobish OS to have, lol.

Linux isn't a OS, it's a Kernel

I bet you don't know what a Kernel is?

Correct. I don't have alot of knowledge about OS's and stuff like that..

Along time ago, people were starting programs and maintaining their pc by typing everything from a command prompt (c>)
As this was kind of unfriendly to new users, a GUI (Graphical interface) was developed around it, so instead of working from a command prompt people could use their mouse to do almost everything.
Some old users revolted and created a system that went back to the old ways, it was called Linux.
Now they feel superior, while having to run tons of stuff to use the same programs, often causing their computers to crash which they do not understand is coming from their emulators but they accuse Windows instead. And these people tell I live in the stone age...

Less computing power required to run OS = More power directed somewhere useful! :D
I personally like:
Windows XP - Simple...and when you click "repair" on something, it actually works, unlike Vista.
Windows Vista - Simple to use, though has some annoying bits on it.
Ubuntu - Free and light. Has some issues, but nothing I can't cope with, for free!
Android - Feels less professional, but sometimes I like that.

Gandalf, I'm pretty sure Linux wasn't created as part of a "revolt" against the GUI. In fact, there are plenty of Linux systems with full-featured GUIs, Ubuntu probably being the most prominent example there is.
Rather, Linux was originally created as a college hobby by Linus Torvalds. It was later coupled with GNU's own project, which had the goal of creating a UNIX-compatible, free and open source operating system, which basically every operating system ever created has been based off of, DOS, Windows, and OS X included.
Not all Linux users necessarily feel superior to Windows users because they're not using Windows -- most of them probably do, but not all of them. Some just like the feel, others its openness, others for its stability, and so on.
That being said, I prefer Windows 7 for compatibility, stability, and ease of use. However, whenever I run a server, I try to use Arch Linux to set it up, since Linux is, in my opinion, much better for server use than Windows. no offense to Azellus

Windows XP, because it's simple and flawless since the latest update of SP3.
-
Windows 7 and Ubuntu.
Windows 7 because its one best of windows series in my opinion, and I use windows because 90% of games and stuff are for windows.
Ubuntu because its nice and easy to use, free afterall.

Ubuntu is legally free.
;)

Yeah. I said ubuntu is free, whats problem with that?
-
I have run Windows 7 since the first beta release, can't say I'll change to anything since I am so used to Windows 7 now a days.
-
Windows 7 without a doubt.
I remember when i was using Windows 3.11 and playing Dos games on it. :lol:
-
Windows 8 Consumer Preview, I LOVE IT! I just need some more support on deviced, but that will happen on the real launch.
-
Windows 7. It's normal, works without issues and easy to use and well, just my type.
-
Windows 8, no questions.
OR iOS

OFC it's better, that's a no brainier
-
Xubuntu and Windows 2000. I prefer Xubuntu since Xfce is lightning fast in comparison to GNOME and much prettier than KDE. Windows 2000 on the other side is quite handy for doing stuff that really needs Windows (like making calculations in Mathcad or drawings in CorelDraw) and is honestly the last good version of Windows; the only thing that it's missing is the ClearType font smoothing, nothing else.

Trolling or serious?
can't really tell

Windows 8, no questions.
Are you serious?

For phone: Android. It's unfriendly to casual people but to me it's one of the best and most tweak-able OSes ever
For computer: Windows 7 and Mac OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard. Lion was a bit screwy with my software and I haven't tried Mountain Lion yet. I don't take sides in the Windows vs OS X battles because they're kinda stupid anyways. Both have their uses, but I primarily use Windows.
For computer (VMs): Windows 98/95 and 3.11. Games don't work on newer stuff. :(

It says exactly the same in my HAVO Informatics textbook.

You'd expect a crappy performance on a 5 year old laptop, but surprisingly, Apple's Lion runs amazing on this Macbook.
People will throw bullshit at you saying it sucks, it doesn't run games, etc. Here is the basic run deal, want to do work, get a Macbook, want to play games, get a PC, or even better, install Windows 7 in Boot Camp. With my five year usage of this Macbook, I have never been more pleased in a product. It was worth the $999 I spent on it, and will continue to serve others as a hand-down.
