Computers What operating system does your main computer run? - Page 3

**pr_capone** · 02-26-2011, 04:28 PM

I'm curious to know what the Planet's main operating system is. I work in tech support and come across mostly XP, Vista, some 7, and Mac but will on occasion come across some others.

What do you run CP?

This will hopefully not turn into a OS or system bashing thread... just wanting to get an idea of what the average CP user is packing.

7x64 on all three of my PCs.

I dual boot 7x64 on my i7 Desktop with Ubuntu

I dual boot 7x64 on my i3 Laptop with LinuxMint

I have recently switched jobs and since I am no longer Assistant Help Desk Supervisor I am now using windows more than linux - meh

You should use XP Mode then. No reason to dual boot.
