Windows 7 Premium or Professional or whatever the hell they're calling it now 64x on this computer. (set to look like classic Windows. I hate all the fancy graphical Bullshit. It's an OS, make it stable and make it eat as little memory as possible. That's all I want).

XP Pro SP3 on the other (much older Music room) computer.

Girlfriend's laptop runs Vista and I honestly can't understand what is up with Vista. Going from XP to 7 was a logical jump everything makes sense and once I got used to the changes I found almost all of them to be vastly superior for work flow and screen usage and whatnot.

But Vista...the in between gap... I don't like it. Not one bit. It's not nearly as bad as everybody makes it out to be but I wouldn't have upgraded from XP to Vista even if I could have afforded it at the time.

Windows 7 64-bit Ultimate only currently.

Up until Win 7 it was always Win XP, Ubuntu Linux and OSx86 running multiboot.

work machines still running Windows XP, but that's what my corporate environment demands.

Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium.

Absolutely nothing wrong with it and does everything I need it to do.

previously Vista 32 bit.


As of 2 days ago, Windows 7 64 bit.


Seems pretty boss once you streamline it for maximum ownage. Love the aero theme aswell.



Not really sure i understand the difference in 32 vs 64 to be honest but i'm not that techy.

Os X 10.5 on my desktop, Win7 64 and Fedora 14 on my netbook, but I guess I'm gonna change fedora to another linux distro - thinking about opensuse right now, but dunno yet :).
