Mac, Windoze or Linux?

[SirThom]

Which one(s) do you use and why?

I voted for Windows. The reason behind this is that I have little money to buy myself a Mac, so I'm stuck with XP. =)

aha go with unix

5 computers use XP and 1 uses CentOS 4.1 (based off redhat 4.0) Linux. I was dual booting my desktop for a while, but I deleted the parition, since i couldnt get wine to work with steam.

 

[SirThom]

If Wine worked with Steam, I'd be running Linux.

I found some links awhile back that might help you in your quest. Then again, they may not. They are here, here, here and here.

Awesome, thanks for the links man. =)

i use windows, no matter what windows is just the all round compatible o/s that works pretty decently

 

[Killerah]

I voted Windows and Linux. But mainly Windows

I voted for Windows because pretty much everything I want to do is in the Windows environment. OH I'm sure I could find equivalents in Mac OS and Linux, but I am more comfortable with the windows environment, having used it for years. I never really had a chance to dabble with macs, and never made the leap to Linux.

 

[ChickenSoup]

I use windows xp.


'nuff said.

 

[BeLoVeD]

i use windows simply because there aren't enough games for macs

Same goes for me

 

[DZwart]

I may not care for M$, but use Windows because most of the games I want to play are set up for Windows only (without more tinkering than I care to do).

 

[kraniac]

Windows and FreeBSD, which was not one of your choices so I voted Linux since they're similar.

 

[theapoc]

I voted linux, because it is my primary OS.


Me playing WoW


Steam server list.


Ingame Screen of me playing CS:S in linux.

GW is another game I've played in linux.

If you can take the occational break due to an update and minor proformance drop then I say give it a shot. In WoW I get about 50-85fps, Steam I get between 50-80, feels like im playing in a native linux client. The only thing I cannot get to work is itunes or vent. If only I could get my guild to switch to teamspeak....sigh. ;(

[Pilgrim]

DOS? DOS is sux0r

 

[Pelagrin]

I can't discriminate since I like them all just fine. After playing with it some, I do have to say that OSX is awesome, but pretty much everything I do is in Windows XP.
