In response to Atheist's subtle request... here it is.
I'm an XP user. Not sure I'm ready to move to Vista yet.
I'm statisifed with XP Pro at this point and have no desire to change (unliess I buy a new PC or Laptop)
Ive got both XP and Vista running on my pc. Altough since I installed Vista, I have never needed to run XP so I might wait 1 month and if nothing terrible has happened I'll remove XP :bigyello:
i am both a XP and Vista user :)
XP and 2000 at work.
XP, Vista, 2003 at home (My wife still has an old '98 box at home that she loves for reasons only she knows. I tried to upgrade it to XP once and nearly lost which I consider to be a very important part of my anatomy. :sick:
However, I did not list '98 in the poll. :D )
My wife finial left Win98 when I bought her a new computer last Christmas and told her I would not reformat it to put 98 on.
Vista at work. Linux, XP, Mac at home.
I don't need all the rubbish and features of modern operating systems, all I want it for is to browse files and run my apps.
At wotk I use Windows 2000, which suits my needs just fine, without taking up memory running services and diskspace for features I dont want.
At home I have XP Pro because thats what it came with, Its okay and I dont need to upgrade for a while yet.
Is it what I use or what i've installed?Quote:

If it is an operating system don't you kind of have to use it when you boot up? :eek:Quote:

My newest PC (used for video editing) had an option for VISTA which we turned down - XP was just fine for our purposes there.
You didn't list any SERVER O/S's - we've got SBS 2003 in the back room.
Yes, no option for Server OS'
I run ...
Vista Ultimate
Small Business Server 2003 (ISA 2004, Exchange 2003, SQL Server 2000)
Server 2003 (Terminal Services)
XP Pro
2000 Pro
I use windows xp SP2
On my SBS 2003 box I've got EXCHANGE 2003 and MS SQL 2005!
...sorry to go off topic ;)
@szlamany, SQL 2005 isnt part of SBS 2003, only 2000 is. Did you install a separate sql version?
Do you guys want me to edit the poll and include server os'?

I barely used Vista and I don't plan to use it again
Yes - edit the poll!
I had a CD of SQL 2000 that I tried to install on the SBS 2003 box - but it was not service packed and SBS 2003 would not install SQL 2000 from a non-service packed CD.
I didn't see that SQL 2000 was part of the SBS 2003 install - where did you see that being a part of it?
At any rate I went with a SQL 2005 install since I've got that (from several sources at this point!).
It's nice to copy up our DB's to SQL 2005 and see that they function properly - we will very soon have at least one customer jump to 2005 for production.
Its in one of the CDs, not the first one. ISA 2004 is in the SP-1 for SBS 2003 otherwise you get ISA 2000.
Editing...
Hows that?
Can you put me in for one vote on the SBS 2003 - or is it too late?
One vote added for SBS 2003.
At Home: Windows XP Pro w/ SP2, Linux OpenSuSE 10.2 64, Fedora Core 6, and MacOSX Tiger.
At Work: Windows XP Pro w/ SP2 and Windows 2003 Standard Edition
Fedora Core 5, on both my workstations and servers. I think I'm going to upgrade to FC6 though soon. Once Fedora 7 comes out they'll probably drop support for FC5.
I may go with RHEL or CentOS on my servers. Not too sure yet.
Oh I've got WinXP on my laptop as it's what came on it. It shan't stay this way though.
XPSP1 -> integrated XPSP2 -> + all 63 Security Updates
(i made a silent installer package for all of the updates)
LOL .. someone said 3.1 .. hey where's DOS??
the AES PCs at the Alarm CMS is using DOS ...
XP Pro SP3...
Am I the only AS400 user?
I am stocking up on XP CDs for some future PCs. The same was done for Win98.
Our packing stations are running 98 ..why change them and they are 100MHZ boxes
The phone system uses XP pro, all other PC are XP. We only run Excel, Word, and Client Access (AS400)...no need for Vista. The salesman just killed his Dell Laptop, I found the same model (New) on Ebay with XP...prefect
You know you probably will be able to purchase Vista and request/purchase a downgrade license to go back to XP. They do this with some of their software so maybe with this too.
