    Default OT, what computer operating system do you have?

    Just out of curiosity, what operating system do you have on your computer? I made the poll multiple-choice, since some people may have more than one computer with different operating systems on them.

    This should be a poll

    XP Pro SP2 - I love it, and swear by it

    I also mess around with linux distros (Ubuntu, SuSE)

    I have tried a recent build of Vista....fancy graphics stuff didn't work

    Ran emulated G3 OS X on this computer, haven't gotten any OS X x86 versions to work, but I've tried.

    You're too quick for me, you must have posted when I was entering in all the options in the poll

    Also I should make it clear that you should vote for operating systems you use often! If you have a machine that you just stuff around on that has OSx86 on it that you boot up once every 6 months, it's not really using it.

    Sorry guys, if I could edit polls then I would add Sun Solaris and "other" for people using less mainstream operating systems...

    I learnt/used DOS, Pascal, QBASIC and hexadecimal counting back in the day of high school, and had to learn "machine language" (assembler for Motorola 68HC12 microprocessors) in university -- I hated it, much prefered the higher-level programming languages such as Borland C++.

    DOS hard?

    Fortran isn't all dead.
