I have one WinME machine (not in use) and one WinXP machine.

At work, I actively use 4 machines that either have WinME or WinXP on them. Occasionally, one of the systems will run Win2k or Win98.

Mrs_Mia_Wallace 8th March 2004 21:17

On my old Computer I have Windows 2000, on my Laptop I got Windows XP Pro and Linux (it's a dualboot but I use Windows more since I'm more used to it, only used Linux for practising my C++).

We still have a Windows 3.1 Computer and an old ATARI with lots of games for it in the cellar - that was agreat Computer and it still works! If I ever have a bigger apartment I'll take it with me :D

Mia:)

Bilbo Baggins 8th March 2004 21:41

Laptop: XP Home
Desktop: XP Pro
Old PC: Windows 95
Pentium PC (still being built): Linux??

xzxzzx 8th March 2004 22:43

Depends what you're considering "MY" computer. I built and maintain two Linux PCs at work, but I don't really "own" them.

I'm on a XP machine as I type this, and then there's my personal Linux server.
So:

XP, Windows = 1
Gentoo Linux = 1
[edit]Pocket PC 3.0.11171 = 1[/edit]

ertmann|CPH 8th March 2004 23:08

Debian Linux

fwgx 8th March 2004 23:27

I dual boot XP pro and Fedora core 1 which I am using most of the time now as my main project for the next few months involves using it. XP would have worked but I wanted one of the requirements to be that it ran on a standardish linux web service setup.

eleet-2k2 9th March 2004 00:51

I've got 4 WinXP Pro SP1 boxes currently. 1 of them used to run Red Hat 9.0. :)

Joel 9th March 2004 01:11

Yeah!

I have the M$ empire in my machine.

whiteflip 9th March 2004 03:46

I already answered this question, A Long time ago, And there were more choices, many more choices.

I Choose BeOS

ertmann|CPH 9th March 2004 05:17

isn't BeOS discontinued?

Viper007Bond 9th March 2004 09:20

Windows XP Pro and I'd never use anything else. It's the best Windows version and I need to run Windows 'cause I'm a heavy gamer.

AegenemmnoN 9th March 2004 10:02

well, in my head im running a corruted version of DOS.....but on my computer im running XP. my mother has windows 98....cant seem to get her to get a better computer.

ryan 9th March 2004 10:07

Yes. Too bad btw. It really had some potential to be a good OS. It's just that not a lot people knew about the OS. So it lacked usefull software, imho.

Anyway, I got 3 w2k machines. And soon one of them will be a XP Pro one.

[x]x 9th March 2004 12:08

Mac OS 10.3.2

Ya, BeOS was a pretty good OS about 4 years ago, I remember my cousin was using it as his main OS for a little while but then had to switch back to Windows because it wouldnt support a enw device he got at the time.

xzxzzx 9th March 2004 16:19

BeOS had VSync (sort of, it's a little more complex than that), so all the screen updates were super-smooth. :D

UUL 9th March 2004 17:24

old pc - win 98
new pc - win xp pro

cooky560 9th March 2004 18:56

cmountford 9th March 2004 19:02

well, how many are in my house is a little different from how many I have---and how many I would want to use is slightly different from the number in my house

Windows XP Home--2 PC's
windows 2000 - 1 laptop
windows 98 - 2nd laptop (actually not in my house)
dos/windows 3.1--ancient 386 computer :D

MagnumOne 9th March 2004 19:08

3 Machines, (a cpl more that are in working condition, but not hooked up)

1 X..XP Pro on my main machine...2 X..XP Home on my daughters machines :)

I also own,Wins/95/98/ME..Have'nt used them in a long time though..

I'm a Winders Kinda Guy..It's never given me any reason to look elsewhere for an OS, always done exactly what it's supposed to without problems..98/ME used to freeze up on me abit,nothing a reboot didn't get rid of :)

dylman 9th March 2004 22:13

XP Pro on my main PC and my laptop. Both legit. I installed Fedora (ie Red Hat) on my old Compaq as a project to learn Linux, but it turns out I can't be arsed learning a new OS. It ran really well before I lost interest though...

evil_oj 9th March 2004 23:30

Linux-only users on a forum for a Windows mp3 player? Then again this is the General Discussions section, and many of you chat primarily off-topic here.

oh and, Windows XP SP1 :up: with non-emulated Winamp 5.02

whiteflip 10th March 2004 04:58

As long as I can get all of my hardware to run on it, I will always dual boot Win 98SE.

mark 10th March 2004 07:10

evil_oj, linux usually runs winamp5 pretty well with wine (google for it if you dont know what wine is)

Theres this little thing called "Wine"...

{edit} Bah damn you.

Oh and why not use XMMS: No Modern Skin Support.

ryan 10th March 2004 16:46

Modern Skins suck.

jonasc1 10th March 2004 17:16
