What's your favorite OS?

edited May 2011 in Tech & Games
Come on, tell us what you like.

I'm voting for Linux, because it's just so fun to use. You don't get such control over your machine with any other OS, plus it's fun to learn shit.

    Linux, because it's easier to use and I don't have to bend over backwards to get it the way I want it. My computer does everything I want it to do, quickly. Example? Yesterday I converted 20 videos in an avi container to a wmv format to play on an xbox 360. It typed one command and left it for about an hour. My computer sent me an email and then went into suspend when it was done. I did this sat in the living room from my phone.

    Oh, and it's free (beer).

    Linux. Gentoo was awesome, and Arch is looking to be pretty sweet as well.

    It all depends on what it's supposed to do. This thread is as pointless as a "What's your favorite tool" thread in DIY.

    I disagree. Apart from some gaming, pretty much any task can be done cross-platform. Anymore, it's more a matter of personal preference than of the right tool for the job.

    Windows 7. I've been a Windows loyalist all my life. Except when it comes to phones :o

    Windows XP will forever be my favorite, GUI wise, but Windows 7 is slowly growing on me although I still would rather take Windows Vista's GUI over even it.
