What is /jp/'s operating system of choice? I'm using Windows Vista at the moment, but if the final version of 7 has any groundbreaking improvements, I may switch to that.

XP on my old desktop and Vista for the laptop I'm using right now. It's alright for what I've been doing lately (surfing the net and games), but yeah, it tends to be annoying.

XP Professional, had it since release, everything works great with no issues whatsoever. If I wanted some fancy toolbar that randomly whores up RAM with no other real features then I'd have installed Vista long ago. I'm not sure what to think of Win7 right now but as I said I have no need to upgrade, everything works perfect on XP and that's how I like it.

Anyway, I use xp-32bit and Fedora 10 64bit at home. XP(soon it will be 7), Leopard(soon it will be Snow) and Fedora 10 and Debian 5 at work.

I will upgrade my xp installs to 7 next year when I get some free time. Linux is easier/faster to maintain so I always keep it updated.

>> No.3404145

I used 2000 the longest. I eventually switched to XP when it stopped being crap, but I'm not satisfied since it's so slow and bulky.
Vista was a big fat joke, so I didn't touch it.
Looks like I'll be going with Windows 7 when it comes out since I preordered it (it was only 65 bucks, so meh).
