Mac Os. Yes that's right i use a mac and i like it.Since i design things and do some video editing, i wouldn't want anything else, just an upgrade to Final Cut Pro.
Reeeeelax. That is the most defensive post I've ever read.

I also own a Mac which I use for writing projects and research and other work related activities, it's running OSX Tiger. It does exactly what it's supposed to do and doesn't give me a hard time.

My gaming machine is a PC running Windows 7 currently, because I got the OS at auction really cheap. Since I know how to maintain a computer I haven't had any problems with it.

Quad booting:
Windows 7 64 (for games)
Windows XP (for work that doesn't involve coding, plus any games that don't work in 7)
Scientific Linux (for coding)
Ubuntu (for media)

Took me a whole day to get it all working properly but it's the perfect system for me.

Windows 7, 64-bit.

I use it because it came on my laptop. I'm very happy with it, even if I never had all of the crippling problems that people always told me Vista had.

I use Vista HP x64-bit. It's tolerable but I would like 7. I am not switching because every other time I've switched OSes on a computer no matter what they are they are extremely slow.

Vista 64 bit, it's the OS the guy who built my system put in. I haven't had a good enough reason to change it yet.

Finally have Windows 7 on my desktop. Right now I'm using my laptop from high school (2003!) which is running its original XP. Sidenote: If I unplug it while it is on, then plug it back in, the battery refuses to charge until I turn it off.

Windows 7 64bit. it's alright for what I need.

I also dual boot with Linux Mint 64bit (again, it's got it's pros and cons, but both annoy me equally. lol)

previously had mac OSX, which was fun, though I think Linux does a pretty good job of simulating it.

Win 7, best OS I've ever used.

I also run ubuntu on my laptop.

I can't think of any other OS that I'd like to use(out of those that exist).

Something with the usability of Win 7 with some form of package manager and more frequent updates would be cool. But microsoft don't wanna break backward compatibility and linux people don't seem to understand usability. :S

Windows 7 x64 for all the gaming and Fuduntu [http://www.fuduntu.org/] for everything else, but I'm based on the latter, since I'm part of the team an'all that... >.>

If Linux was as gamer friendly as windows... Well I'd have dumped 7 on the curb awhile ago.
