I have been using Windows 7 Ultimate since early beta. Now I own it and now I have a lot of trouble using XP and Vista at work. It just works and I am very pleased with it. I even run it on my old Dell Inspiron 1000 laptop and it runs better than it did with XP. Strange but true.

OS X is my home OS, and I would use it pretty much everywhere if I could. I'm a musician and sound engineer by interest/hobby, and a network engineer by trade. Having access to well supported, and well put together recording apps, while also being easy to use, and being able to throw up a shell in seconds is....just perfect.

I run a Linux based home server too (currently with Fedora), for virtualizing networks, some web services, and various other tasks.

I am forced to use Windows XP at work, which given the amount of time we spend in shell environments, makes little sense to me, but gotta keep the Systems Admin team happy I guess....

Vista Home Premium or XP Home (recently XP because it's on the laptop and my desktop has/had Vista), and Unix or Linux (recently it has been Fedora Core 8 and currently Fedora Core 11).

Windows XP Pro- I like it because games work well on it plus I'm use to it.
Mac OSX- mostly for the internet, I'm not that familiar with it yet.
