Mac for uni, windows for work. :P
Mac for Uni as well, but Windows at home :P
Well, mine are technically macs...but with windows dualboot options, who the hell needs Macs?
Windows, because it came with the computer.
LOL 0 votes for linux and mac
Id love to make linux the only OS i use, but unfortuanately windows is needed for certain games... So weekends i use Windows for those games =\ which Linux gamer doesnt have a Dualboot lol
Windows.. :/ :(
Linux FTW. Ones needs a real OS to work/dev with not some baby toy that breaks every time you hit it against the carpet :P
Used to Dual-boot linux, and linux was the one I used more at one time, but now I've only got windows.
haha, 0 mac votes, lets keep it that way.
linux for work and windows xp/7 for gaming - thats pretty much the best combo, unless you are a hardcore video editor.
also, debian rulezzz.
I use Windows 7 x64. It's really great OS.
Windows 7 x64 For teh win!
Windows XP RULES!!!!
Mac at school. Windows at home, but I hate the Mac os.
WINDOWS FOR GAMES!!!
Windows here, never tried anything else. I'd like to try a Mac to see what they are about.
Ubuntu runs Steam :D
but does it run the games
i thought not (unless you use wine)
Windows 7 at home & on laptop, virtual machines of Ubuntu and Windows XP for various tasks.
Windows 7 + Ubuntu 9.04 = Win
HAHAHAHA! Mac OS X has 0 votes....
Windows for the win!
Windows although I occasionally use Linux.
I use windows to work and that things i don't like linux it's good but it's more difficult to use because i use windows from child...
BTW Windows 98 SE Rulz!!
You sir, win an internet.
I have to say Windows. It came with my computer and it is the best one for gaming.
I personally would not use Windows if there were as much games available to the other OS.
My dad uses a Linux, so I have tested it many times and I like some nice features in it (like the multiple desktops). Also it is very light OS which is allways a good thing. But the lack of the particular applications and gaming being pretty much only on an emulator of Windows is the reason why I don't use Linux.
Mac is also a nice canditate. I love the stylish look and ideas Apple has done in it but it has pretty much the same problem that Linux has.
Applications might be easier to find - Atleast if the program is done by a big company, there usually is a mac version then.
I know that there are some games done/ported for Mac, but in my country it's hard to find any games for Macs in stores and they are expensive compared to the PC version games.
The same is with the prices of the system itself between PC's and Mac's.
Windows 7 actually sounds tempting :)
lol, first vote on mac ^^
MAC FTW!!!
Windows FTW !
I need something to play my games, and thats where windows come in.
Windows 7.
I would be a Linux user if games would run as easily as they do in Windows.
Why can't game companies make games for both platforms? *Sigh*
Windows 7 RC1 64-bit.
Windows, but I will install Linux on the computer, too
Kinda obvious most people use windows.
Was there any doubt to the results of this poll? As much as I hate it Windows is the only logical choice for gaming, and Mod DB is a community of gamers, modders, and indie game makers.
I use Windows, but if by some chance Linux, at some point in the future, supports Windows games like Windows does I am switching faster than it takes for WinXP to boot up.
Linux, does support Windows games just not by default check Help.ubuntu.com for more info at least for Ubuntu.
i had some idea windows would be the majority. Was wondering about the other combos
Windows, always. Only time I use a Mac is in my Art class.
I'm sorry Mac's but we're going to have to settle this once and for all... Ready, Set, GO!
Just because there are more of you doesn't make it right. (And history will support me on that point!)
Proud to be a Windows user. I have to use Macs at my University because everyone, even in professional industries, thinks they're amazing for art-related tasks.
I've never understood that. The tools they use, Photoshop and so on, are *exactly* the same on Windows! :s
windows though recently i decided to change to linux.
Windows mainly, Linux for more important things.
Windows 7 Ultimate here ^^ (fuck, it's 32 bit :( )
Windows and Mac
Best of both world, baby ;)
Only Windows 7 Ultimate RTM :p
Windows for everything. :)
I use my mac for mostly everything now. My windows pc is used for max, music, and streaming content to my xbox.
Windows, I like to be able to buy things in shops and have them actually work without any arsing around.
Mac for the huge majority of things I do, except Windows for gaming and some specialist lighting design tools.
Windows because that's what came with the computer and laptop. Though If I could afford a mac I would certainly look into a new lappy.
