    Re: Windows or Mac?

    Really need a multiple choice poll, I (like many others) use more than one OS.

    If you just want primary OS, it is currently Windows Vista Business.

    Re: Windows or Mac?

    ah well.. we can just have people write their secondary OSs in here
    or only vote their main OS..

    and i'm quite surprised that Vista is the main OS atm..

    everything but OSX at present.

    OSX offers nothing over free alternatives, and has no one in their right mind would use it for business.

    Its worth noting thou, at home its now only vista in a non virtual machine
