Dual boot, XP and Win 7. I should use Win 7 more, but I can't be arsed moving all my settings and making sure my installed games work.

Vista. Never really had any major problems with it. My next computer will more than likely use 7, though.

Windows 7 and I'm loving it. Though I probably should have stayed with XP for my gaming PC. Windows 7 isn't that much backwards compatible.

Vista - never had any problems with it. I do plan to upgrade to 7 soon(ish) though for Dx11 and better performance.

I have xp on my laptop, which is an artifact (until recently, it had a quarter gig of ram. That means that you get lag on word processors)

My desktop, on the other hand, is a beast and I've got W7 on it.

Have you tried running in compatability mode? The only game I couldn't get to work on mine was Dark Forces from '95 or '96 because my graphics card didn't support such an old engine.

Windows 7. God of all Operating systems. Only problem is it won't play games made for vista and 95. Something about x64 still figuring out what to do about that.

7's pretty nice. I use it for my main, then the computer in my room which is like over 10 years old now, but still really nice, is XP, and the server I'm working on setting up is Linux based. Mandrivea I think, I'm not sure, kinda threw the project to the side. :/ Should get back into it though.
But yea, 7, XP, and Mandrivea.

XP, 7 when the Student discount in England arrives. For now, I upgrade my computer for Starcraft II.

You have to paint it red to go faster!

I use windows 7, used to have xp for a long time.
I skipped vista for obvious reasons^^

I could use Vista but I prefer good old XP (skinned, obviously). Come to think of it, the only thing that still looks like XP on my computer is the file structure.

Windows XP. Had it for a good while now, and despite a few hiccups it seems to be working alright.

I'm looking to get Windows 7 sometime though, just dread having to reformat everything on it.

why on earth did you group windows 7 and vista together in the poll D:

Windows 7 > Vista on so many levels.

And it would be nice to see how many people still use vista :p
