| I'm using Windows 7 Beta and will obtain the full version when it's released. |
| I use linux as well I hated using windows personally |
| ~May you continue being the Messiah.... |
| Windows is what I'm used to and it's what I'll always use. Preferably XP. I don't give a shit about other OSs and I certainly can't be bothered to spend a good few minutes getting used to them. |

| Using Windows XP for watching anime (MAL Updater/AllToAVI/PSP Updater/MPC). While doing Photoshop/iMovie work in Mac OS X, I use MPlayer OSX Extended. Took a while to get the settings right on this player though and seems that MPC is a better player than MPlayer Extended. I will buy Windows 7 though. The taskbar is just too awesome. (Better than the dock) |
| Linux I think... it's simple and efficient, and has everything you'd need for anime/manga stuff. Although ridiculously slow torrenting while using linux (On multiple torrent clients, not sure what the deal is and don't have the patience to resolve it) tends to keep me on windows when in anime geek mode. |
| This is a remarkably civil thread given the subject. I'm proud of MAL right now. Whether I can say the same after a few pages of replies is questionable. |
| Your search on "Oran Solus" returned the following quotes: "Oran Solus? I know him. What a wanker. He still owes me a tenner." Oscar Wilde "Oran, you're so intelligent and awesome <3" Bakayaro "Oran's sexy." LolitaDecay "Oran is a sophisticated penguin." Drybananna "Oran is a Hand-Eye you faggots." EddieSpaghetti "Oran for Prime Minister." the_prime_one "Oran is all that is stated in his sig and more." orbitzz |
| WinXP, 'cause used to it & having all the needed codecs & players for it. |
 |
| Currently stuck in Vista hell...but I'm partial to XP For some reason I don't picture many anime geeks using macs... |

Lol me too... even though it wasn't my intention to start a flame war when creating the thread... A lot of the time the intention isn't there. But these things have a habit of suddenly exploding. Well, to chip in to the actual thread, Vista is definitely not the best choice. I hate it, and if I could make a human representation of Vista, I would kill it. Slowly. I hope 7 has more to offer. XP served me well though. |

| I dualboot windows 7 beta and gentoo. I would use linux fulltime, except the vendor releases a really shitty wireless driver that it too unstable for day-to-day use. |

| Windows vista/2008 Bah, they're pretty much the same as long as they have good connection to the internet. |
| I use both ubuntu and winXP to watch anime, and in that regard, I don't see the advantage of one over the other. Ubuntu, however, was free, while XP cost me money. Therefore, ubuntu wins. |
| Dual boot Windows 7 and Fedora Core 10. Fedora suits me fine for anime and internet (no wireless problems, stable), but I tend to be on Windows more, because of Microsoft Office and Winamp. |

| Linux seems like the thing to use. It's cool and Finnish and open. However, I am lazy and use windows. I like to spend my computer time not messing around with software. Especially my OS. |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |

| We all know nothing runs on a Mac~ And I don't feel like spending the time to learn Linux just yet, so XP/Vista for me. |
| Windows 98 BITCHES. 95 on my laptop. |
| sad |
| I use Arch Linux. I have a Windows Vista partition as well, but I only boot into it when I need to use Visual Studio for school (I try and avoid it and just write code in VIM most of the time). thanner said: I don't see the point of using Linux, besides of being free... Here's why I use it over Windows: -My OS doesn't think I'm an idiot (windows and mac are both guilty of this) -Way more customizable -More control over my system -Uses less resources -much better command line (most of you wouldn't care, but windows CLI blows) |
