    XP all the way, OS X looks ok but it just isn't as widely used as XP. Although Apple have the edge in MP3 Players cos the Zune sucks.

Basically blowing a raspberry. It must be titled to apple which is why they did OX which looks like a face the other way, eyes squinting going oohh. blooming os comapnys were just being childish weren't they!?!

    ......No.
    The XP means "eXPerience", just leave it as that.

    Microsoft owns the internet through Hotmail. The .HTML is short for Hotmail, so all .HTML files are MS files.

    Im loving the support for Leopard and Linux.

    I'm gonna stick my neck out here, but.. I actually like Vista. Yes, its slow and everything but, when you use it so regularly it becomes a part of life and it just becomes a norm and I just got used to it now.

    Leopard on my Macbook has crashed on my twice where as my Vista PC has never crashed.

    Ubuntu is myy first choice, once you get it to work for you. Ubuntu is designed more for the average windows user but i have to compile my own WIFI drivers and run network diagnostics and etc. once you know the cmd any gnome/gtk linux is fun. I know ubuntu the best so ill say thats my first choice followed by 10.4 because ive not been able to use 10.5

    i wud list my user preference as:
    1. Win Xp SP3
    2. Win Vista Ultimate (current OS, really like the GUI and visual effects but overall has quite a few bugs still)
    3. Leopard (actually i dont see the big fuss about this OS)

    havent used any other so cant comment on those.
