What operating system are you running? - January 24th 2012, 10:29 PM

Hey, i was wondering what all operating systems people are running?

I am currently running windows 7, but thinking about install ubuntu linux on it as ether dual boot, or the main OS. I am actually running it off my thumb drive right now xD.

Opps ya, it is i didn't notice that thread xD. I'll leave it up to mods to decide, this might work since that one hasn't been posted in in a while and no one will probably find it xD.

I am using XP on one computer, Vista on another.
XP: Simple and easy to use, and functional, but the bubbly type big gaudy colors get annoying when compare to the sleek sharpness of Vista. Good use of memory

Linux distros are good but for the most part you need to be fairly tech savvy so to say. However you also have to be very careful with it while viruses aren't as common on it they usually do different. You just need to be careful and know what you're doing, so more research then decide xD.

I'd disagree with this, whilst for a lot of the unheard of distros you may need to be fairly tech savvy, for the larger ones they're becoming more and more user friendly, ubuntu for example. If anything ubuntu is easier to use than windows and it's only if there are drivers missing that you need to have some level of computer knowledge and then a lot of the time a quick google search is all it requires.

I run Windows 7 and ubuntu 11.10 on my laptop.

While you have a point, it also depends on what you want to do with the operating system itself. A lot of the stuff other then just browsing the web / downloading some stuff does require a decent amount of knowledge, or at least the ability to learn it fairly easily. Plus might i add, ubuntu too me, seems to be becoming less user friendly. While to someone people it might be better, and they might like it more and it might be easier. it isn't really to me. Though to each their own .
