RE: What operating system do you use? by BiZaRrE on 05-28-2004 at 09:27 AM

RE: What operating system do you use? by Wabz on 05-28-2004 at 09:37 AM

Windows 2000 :banana:


RE: What operating system do you use? by GiantSpider on 05-28-2004 at 10:54 AM

XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 :banana:


RE: What operating system do you use? by RaceProUK on 05-28-2004 at 11:41 AM

WinXP Home Edition SP1
Fedora Core 2 (I've checked this as Red Hat in the poll, as it is really just Red Hat 10)

Additional: When I installed Fedora, it stopped me booting into Windows. However, problem solved quite easily. If anyone else has had this problem, I have the solution.


RE: What operating system do you use? by dovey8321 on 05-28-2004 at 11:49 AM

RE: What operating system do you use? by The Napster on 05-28-2004 at 05:25 PM

Win XP Home, and I love it. I wouldnt say Mac, Linux, etc. Suck though. I Just like Windows best :D


RE: What operating system do you use? by Vazza on 05-28-2004 at 05:40 PM

On the main family computer, Windows 98 SE
On one laptop, Windows ME and on another one Windows 95 :$.


RE: What operating system do you use? by .blade// on 05-28-2004 at 05:59 PM

I use (for various purposes, on 2 different PC's with a total of 3 Hard-Drives) Windows XP Home & Professional, Microsoft Windows Codename Longhorn, Windows Server 2000 and 2003, Mandrake Linux, and OCCASIONALLY, on computers that I don't own, MAC OS.


RE: What operating system do you use? by Millenium_edition on 05-28-2004 at 06:08 PM

win 2k and 98
2k is by far the best, it's the most stable one, because xp likes to crash because of all those fancy themes. and 98 is because i don't have the choice =/

and how did you get that my friend
who i couldnt of given a link to

You can freely get SP2 beta :-/
it's better to wait till the final release of SP2 in June or July as SP2 is still in beta-phase.

Why is Mandrake, RedHat, Debian, Lindows set apart and the last choice also includes Linux :-/. If you make a seperation between a few Linux distributions and the others you should add them all or only "Linux".

RE: What operating system do you use? by Vilkku on 05-28-2004 at 06:30 PM

WinXP SP1 and Win98


RE: What operating system do you use? by dotNorma on 05-28-2004 at 07:00 PM

I personally use Windows XP Pro SP1 with a crap load of tweaks. My dad uses Windows XP Home SP1 with like no tweaks at all. My mom uses Windows 98 and 2000 for shcool work (She is an Assistant Principal) and for playing Dr.Mario and Tetris ROMS (Total Addict)


RE: What operating system do you use? by CodeChaos on 05-28-2004 at 08:35 PM

My old computer is running Windows 95 (as in 1995).

On my new computer, i'm running Windows XP.

And my PlayStation 2 is running Kondara Linux (PS2Linux).


RE: What operating system do you use? by Smethead on 05-28-2004 at 08:38 PM

well I think he means the rest of distros of linux :P he can't add the hundreds and hundreds of them (suse, red hat, debian, mandrake, mulinux, fedora, polinux, lindows, knnopix, and a long etc....:P)
RE: What operating system do you use? by calebj14 on 05-29-2004 at 12:53 AM

I use Mac OS X 10.3.4  and Windows XP Pro SP1.  I wouldn't be using the PC, but seeing as I don't have a regular job, I'm stuck on it 'til I raise enough money.


RE: What operating system do you use? by martin on 05-29-2004 at 04:15 AM

you can get it when you're a beta tester for Microsoft or a developer, that's the only legal way. We don't discuss other ways of getting it on these forums.
RE: What operating system do you use? by ShawnZ on 05-29-2004 at 07:21 PM

RE: What operating system do you use? by Garndell on 05-29-2004 at 09:42 PM

I voted for the OS I am using right this minute becuase I use several.


RE: What operating system do you use? by Kryptonate on 05-29-2004 at 09:45 PM

For people who are waiting for the final version of Windows XP SP2, it will propably be delayed till September 2004. You can however download it at microsoft.com but this is still in beta phase and not recommended.


RE: What operating system do you use? by lylesback2 on 05-29-2004 at 10:03 PM

great question...and clearly Windows XP takes over :P stupid linux


RE: What operating system do you use? by Pinball on 05-29-2004 at 10:21 PM

I use Win XP Home Edition because I've never tried anything else and this does the job.

Ever tried Mac OS X?  It'll "do the job" much better.  Besides that, it works much better!  And, get this:  It will run most Linux and Unix software!
RE: What operating system do you use? by belluso_316 on 05-30-2004 at 01:16 AM

here WinXP Professional service pack 1:)

RE: What operating system do you use? by ImP^o^Rt on 05-30-2004 at 01:20 AM

while i have no problem with Mac OSX, (and kinda love it from afar), theres no ppoint trying to convince everyone to try it. most ppl can't afford to buy the new hardware, nor do they want to make the "Switch"
