    What is your favorite operating system. Mine is the Mac OS. I don't have a Mac computer, but I've played with it at school, and it is awesome!
     
    I have always liked sticking with Windows. But I also play around in Linux. Macs can go rot in a hole.
     
    Well... I've really only experienced Windows... so that is where my vote goes to.
     
    I really like Windows. I think I tried Linux before when I was at school, but it was kinda of confusing. And I don't have a Mac so, Windows is my favorite one. I remember MS DOS, great times...

    But I got to hand it to Windows.
     
    Pre-Vista Windows OSs. They work with most every piece of software ever made and if they don't then there's going to be an emulator to make it so, really the only reason. Versions after 98 are largely nothing but superfluous profit ventures, in my opinion, and Vista screwed it over, so I'm keeping what I've got... and really, I have to anyway, since I still play old games and the like.

    I think you can figure out which OS I like.

    Though despite my now three-year old name, I am NOT a fanboy. Apple's becoming the new Microsoft in terms of business, though their OSes still remain superb not to mention the entire Hackintosh project.
     
    I have both Mac and Windows, but I love Mac more. :3
     
    I think my favorite operating system is BeOS. It has an interesting and nice interface, and was just generally better to work around to me.
     
    Well seeing as how I like having a secure system and functionality, my vote goes towards Windows because it can do everything that I need to do.
     
    Mine's Mac. Although, my laptop has both Mac and Windows, so I'm biased. The Windows/Mac debate for me always depends on how important video games are to me... I do absolutely nothing else on Windows. Never had virus issues or whatnot on my Mac, so why bother? As far as I see, the only advantage Windows has is that it's easier to make programs on there than a Mac (and it's cheaper).

    Windows, obviously.

    Mac OS doesn't support a lot of computer games, too, so it's virtually useless for gamers.

    I don't think Mac OS has DirectX 10/11 either.
     
    Windows 7, best OS I used so far, the interface is so smooth, it's just like an upgraded version of Windows XP, not like crappy Vista.

    Yeah, but I don't really use a computer for gaming. Mac is getting DirectX 10 I think, but whatever. I'm not saying either one's absolutely better, but for me a Mac is far more useful. More people need to work on Mac games though >_> I still use Windows like I said, just that I don't really like it :|

    Steam for Mac is coming out on Wednesday. That is all.

    Yeah infinite rainbow pinwheel is fun and unexpected error messages are super useful. And I didn't know that a the mac could use directX, but that sounds plain silly because it would support a lot more games, wouldn't it? And saying more people need to make games work on a mac is silly since not everything will work on a mac like everything can work on windows. :3
     
    I suppose I'm a member of the minority, I like the Mac OS. I don't play games outside of starcraft or warcraft, which work just as well on mac as they do windows. I do have a license and ability to use Windows whenever I want, but I rarely ever do. I've gotten by rather well for the past few years with mosty Mac OS.
