For me, Macs are a bit too expensive and Windows get a lot more support, so I chose Windows... Vista, that is.

I know there's lots of complaints about Vista, with its resource consumption and high system requirements, but I only have Vista Home Basic, so it's not a bit like that. I have an old, 7yr old Win XP computer and it's really slow now. But it still works, so I use that usually for homework, etc. So Vista was really the only OS I used that's pretty fast lol. Plus the new interface are cool, just disable Windows Sidebar.

Mac OS X is an interesting OS. The first time I ever used a Mac was 2 years ago in High School. It was a bit hard to get used to it at first, but something new is cool nonetheless. I also know that Macs are safer, with a lot less exploits than Windows. Faster? I don't really know but I hear this one is.
Well I think these kinds of PC's are getting stronger because of the strong Apple brand due to iPods. I wouldn't be surprised if they actually make Macs more competitive with Windows soon because they have the money. Time will tell.

So what's your thoughts?

I don't know much about them...I have XP but that's all I know...

...um vote?

it doesn't have to be an opinion. You can vote because you have that OS.

VOTED~!

I have both a Linux and Windows OS, but I use Vista more because I'm used to it. I like Linux, but I'm still learning how to use it.

Technically, my OS is Windows XP Media Center Edition. But all in all, it's still XP.

XP < Mac < Linux < Vista

I dont feel like getting into why. xD

vista < dos < mac, xp < linux

vista - a xp with better standard visuals and less possible options and rights for users.
xp - best microsoft os so far
mac - the os is okay, less bugs than windows. but yeah apple products arent the cheapest ones.
linux - my favorite. visuals overwhelming -> compiz fusion, multiple desktops are unbelievable useful, 1 console command to install nearly every program just wonderful, thanks to WINE crossplattform support.

Compiz fusion makes everything really slow though. There's faster multi-desktop programs that's faster, but I must compiz is very fansy.

^this kind of setup is really cool, but it got extremely annoying after a while lol. Beryl + Kiba-dock

compiz is just a styling tool which isn't really necessaray. in a way like stylexp for windows. and it has so many options just deaktivate some or configurate them right and it will speed up

@zero
beryl and ubuntu 6 that was a time XD

information for all infidels:
- ubuntu 9.04 is the actual one and every year 2 there will be 2 versions releases. first number is the year 2nd is the month.
- beryl and compiz were 2 seperated projects in the past and now its combined to compiz-fusion with the options u see in the vidz above and much more XD

Right now I'm using Mac OS X because I just got a nice new laptop for college. I like it a lot, but it's not like I'm one of those annoying mac users who despises PCs. I can and will use whatever. It's nice to have the security of a mac OS especially when downloading lots of stuff, along with some nice Apple lifestyle type programs. However Macs get about 2 games a year which both came out for PC 10 years ago, sooo it has its setbacks. I won't vote for now.
