tunaboy692004 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Whats everybodys Favorite OS anyways? I know many of you will say windows XP, but is that because you have never given any others a chance? Or do you just find Windows XP to have everything you like? Personally I like windows XP Because it has some programs that other OS's cannot run. But I am Actually installing Redhat/FEDORA (a Linux DISTRO) soon, which will be a good addition :) Current Goals80/80 Fletching60/75 Woodcutting97/100 Combat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tunaboy692004 Posted June 29, 2006 Author Share Posted June 29, 2006 I posted this here because it is more of an opnionated question, and in my past experiences this would just go off without any posts in the tech forum. Anyways, many of the forum users do not visit tech forums often unless they have a problem, So i posted here, to see what the average user belives. If a mod strongly belives it should be moved, do so Current Goals80/80 Fletching60/75 Woodcutting97/100 Combat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_blob23 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Yeah, Windows 3.11 was good. I like most Linux variations if I want to do the really geeky stuff. Otherwise, I use a Mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Putter Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 3.11 was funny, because it was like, in a window ( :shock: ). I skipped right over 95, and went to 98, which was pretty solid too. XP has been surprisingly nice to me aswell, maybe just because I don't do anything to intensive with computers, so it doesn't have much reason to bug out on me. I'm going to be getting Vista right around launch (never done that before :pray: ), but there's about 5 launch games that I want, and I'll probably have to put up with bugs in order to play. But I don't care ;). I'll have my new comp by then. My favorite? I'd say XP, simply because it's the one I used the most and never really pooped on me. Never tried Linux or anything, simply because I don't have a reason to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashozzy2 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 with out a doubt mac, windows are rubbish compared to them, macs are much more powerful machines especialy with the new chip which lets you run windows based programmes. WIndows Vista basicaly copied mac! look at the mac dash board then look at the vista dash board thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magekillr Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 after trying my friend's Powerbook...and then trying his new Macbook...i'd say OSX as any new inexperienced computer user only knowing a windows interface...i always thought "Mac's suck" only b/c that is what i heard haha :lol: then when i was like 13 i used a Mac for myself and was amazed :shock: . ever since then i wanted a Mac but they were so expensive. with the new release of the Macbook and now that i am older with money..i am looking forward to using OSX on the new Intel mac 8-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diminished2b Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 FreeBSD.. It's a great operating system. The ports system has over 15,000 ports. They have thousands of binary packages. It's stable, fast, UFS2 is a kick-[wagon] filesystem. The kernel has a whole team as developers. The TCP stacks are probably better than any other OS. Many reasons.. \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Security with windows will always be an issue. The operating system model hasn't change in years(especially for MS) and, so far, Vista isn't turning out to be anything more than Windows next bloated security nightmare. But it comes with solitare....out of the box! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquid_Morph Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Currently Ubuntu Linux, or any variation thereof(xubuntu, etc). Windows isn't bad, but things like WGA(Windows Genuine Advantage) make me want to kill Microsoft sometimes. Did ya know someone took Microsoft to court recently about WGA? Microsoft lost and had to shed out a few $k to the guy, it was classed as spyware as it monitored something else in your PC or something. You can also disable WGA. Deleting a few files here and there, re-naming a few, and also deleting WGA from your Registry. I have. O:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
