I find the Mac OS X a more stable OS. Not too wrapped up in the technology so don't mind the comparative dearth of available software compared to Windows - all those flaming patches*-¦!?
Have nightmare memories of DOS!

It's kind of a nuanced question. Preference depends on what I'm doing with it. For development work, Solaris; for home use - Win XP, solely because it has more goodies and is faster than 2000. Though, I guess when some punk hacks into my machine from the net I'll be sending hate mail to Gates.

I prefer the Apple OS X because I don't really have to worry about security issues to nearly the same extent that I have to when I am using Windows XP.

Yes, a little ballot box stuffing, it would appear. Voter fraud!  |

Windows ME.
Reasons: I can use Internet, (IE, Netscape or Opera), and MS Word 97, on a computer with only 128 MB RAM and 1 GB harddrive.
(Although I can't have both the internet and Word open at the same time).

I really like my Windows NT 4.0 with service pack 6, if I get a new machine, I think the NT will come with it.

You know, nilus, I enjoyed using NT4.0 Workstation emmensely as well. I never crashed it - ran solidly. Of course my Mac friends couldn't resist asking me if my computer was actually turned ON ...   Among its qualities - was not a memory hog like 2000/XP, but would make use of increased RAM very well. And it was a relatively small OS compared to the bloated ones out now. My 2000 and Linux installations are minimum 1GIG at install. Lack of Plug-N-Play didn't bother me either. Thanks for the reminder of more enjoyable computing days past. Demetri |
