Nexus Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 Some people have an OS that came with their PC, or they have the OS they could afford. Which doesn't mean that its the one they prefer to have. So which OS do you prefer to have, if not already have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoXY Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 OS X 10.4 is the only one for me :yes: and on the occasion XP Pro..:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STV Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005 It might have come with my TPC, but I can't find a better OS for me. it seems that your "list" is incomplete. However, WinXP TPCE 2005 is based on Windows XP Professional. Ill just wait until a mod adds it to vote. I also don't understand why "vista" is on there. it hasn't reached RTM or even beta 1.

GeneralStorm Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 XP Home. Of course, it was part of a "recovery disk", so a whole slew of programs gets installed every time I need to format. :no: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+virtorio MVC Posted July 24, 2005 MVC Share Posted July 24, 2005 I'm a long time Windows user but decided to get an iMac G5 (I couldn't help it, all it took was one look at it) and now I have a hard time getting around Windows. Mac OS X is my OS of choice, Windows XP is still plenty good though and I wouldn't use anything else for the PC. I use the the Mac OS X.4 and XP (Home) copies that came with my computers. I thought about getting a copy of Windows XP Pro but when I thought about it I really need any of it's extra functionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujjwal Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 I would prefer a good distribution of Linux (Arch Linux, Slackware). But the poll seems to miss a lot of options, including *BSD and Solaris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kupo-Cheer Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 The OS I'd prefer to have doesn't exist, if you want to get technical. But, choosing from a list there I'd have to say Windows XP Pro, and then Vista when it is actually released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
