    I gave up on windows about 5 years ago, moved to OSX and will never turn back again.
    maybe, just maybe, when vista offers a little more than cute desktops, i will consider adding it to my mac.

    You should add a poll this this thread. I use Windows I have been hearing alot about Apple and Linux might give these a try if they are good then I will switch to one of them, for me windows is hell always crashing or software not working properly.

    I use Linux (Kubuntu to be exact) because it simply provides the customization and efficiency that I like in an OS (don't need it really, I could still do my work in windows). I've never even really considered buying a mac as I don't see the point of them for me, for other user maybe (I like to upgrade my computers ;) )

    My primary machine at home is a MacBook Pro in which I run Vista, XP, and Linux in VMWare Fusion.

    I manage the computers at my work which run XP and I refuse to upgrade them to Vista until they prove the benefits.

    On most of my servers I run Debian Linux.

    If given the option I would have everyone switch to OS X. The problem is that most people have that one piece of software they Windows is needed for. Most of the time we can get around this with VMWare fusion or Parallels. There are always CPU intensive programs that will not work that way. This is why my work computers run XP.

    I used to run Linux as my primary OS at home, but I found it was just too much work. With OS X I get the power of *NIX with the ease of use with drivers.

    I love OS X now, and I don't want to even hear somebody saying 'Windows' :p No it's not that bad, but I think Mac OS X is a lot better :)

    Sorry, what? The apple OSX is all about eyecandy. I like to play good games, I like to run good software and I like to use a computer as a computer, not a fashion kit. I think it's silly to say Vista is just a cute desktop.

    I run Windows XP Pro on all my client computers and Windows Server 2003 on my servers. I'll upgrade to Windows Vista when I upgrade to a 64 bit.

    Have you ever used OS X for more than a second? OS X has the eye candy as well as the backend of *NIX. I am able to run most of the same tools as I ran on Linux while having the ease of use OS X.

    Vista is more eye candy than OS X and Vista isnt half as powerful. Besides games OS X can do almost anything that Windows can. Most gamers I know today are switching away from the desktop and going with the console. It's better to connect the 360, ps3 or wii to the TV than to play on a desktop.
