Anyone use *nix

[AverageJoe]

Does any one use a unix operating system?

I have linux on one of my computers. I only have windows on the other because my favorite games are only compatible with it. I can't wait until opengl gets a better hold than directx.

 

 

Just wondering what other people are using,

I use distributions of Linux.

I have 1 computer on Debian right now, and I had one on Knoppix. Open source rocks.

I have a computer running ubuntu, but I'm thinking about switchng it to fedora.

Hmm. Fedora is OK. I like Ubuntu better, but you must like it better for some reason.

Red Hat is one of my favorites though.

I have Ubuntu 6.06 on one partition, WinXP on the other. I very rarely boot into WinXP, but it would take me a while to transfer files onto the Ubuntu partiition and reformat the Windows half. I really should buy a second disk.

 

Red Hats a nice distro if you want commercial support. My University used to ave Red Hat machines, now they switched to CentOS. Luckily nothing much broke either.

I use Ubuntu 7.10 and Mac OS X (Now that its officialy UNIX). I plan to install Solaris. I used to have Windows, but it crapped out every month or so. Not that I expect anything better...

I use FreeBSD on my workstation (it's not desktop, it's bedside ).

Also, I made a web-kiosk (a computer running a web-browser only) for my mother using FreeBSD (and Firefox). No M$ in this home.

I run freebsd on my computer now, as well as windows xp. Freebsd doesn't have any driver support for my NIC so I can only get online with my xp computer. I really like freeBSD though.

Freebsd doesn't have any driver support for my NIC

May be 7.0 has. Possibly using Windows driver under FreeBSD. What card?

I run ArchLinux exclusively on my desktop. 'Tis the only PC I have.
