Windows 7 Professional x64 because it looks better than XP but has no real performance hindering unlike Vista, and cause i get it free from my uni (that ones not much use considering i get all the os's microsoft make from them for free...)
Why not...
Vista? - i hate it, it was nothing but trouble when it came on my laptop i actually
downgraded after 2 days of vista
XP - i used to use both x32 and x64 but microsoft more or less dropped support for
for directx (something a gamer needs as you know) so in a way i was forced to
upgrade but glad i did.

Some pretty old Windows, runs nice and slow, only use this baby because it is on a really old netbook. Hell yeah.
Mostly 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium, I should have got Pro though.
I also have XP on a my dual booting Hackintosh.
OSX to play around with because it is cheap.
Mint 10 as a free thing to mess with and run live sessions of gParted and stuff like that.
My netbook dual boots XP and UNE 10 (Ubuntu Netbook Edition).
Finally my work laptop runs XP and will stay that way until microsoft pulls the pin on corporate support. They will be upgraded to 7 then. I run a USB with Mint 10 so I can do what I want with the machine without breaching any internal IT rules.
Windows 7 is nice and I won't upgrade unless I must.
EDIT: I forgot freeNAS on my NASbox.

Windows 7 Ultimate 64.
Used to run Vista, and was perfectly happy with it, but 7 is legendary. And has DX11.
I'd love to run 7 on my study laptop as well, but sadly it'll have to stay with XP 32 as I'm not certain how well it would handle it.
Next project is a home-built NAS server, planned to run under Windows Home Server 2011
Not entirely sure on the exact specifics of the hardware, but something along the lines of an i3, 4 gigs of DDR3 and 3x1TB 7.200RPM drives which currently sit in my stationary.
Basically, it's a matter of moving my crap off my 800w stationary, and onto a low-power always-on solution.

Snow Leopard. Been a Mac user since the Apple II. Dabbled in PCs, but always found myself coming back.
I use Mac OS Snow Leopard. It's pretty fucking useful. And that's coming from someone who's always used Windows.
Other than that, my gaming PC downstairs is in disrepair, but once I clean it out and flush the HDD, I'll be installing Windows 7.
