At home I use MorphOS almost exclusively.  OSX fills the gaps.

OSX or WinXP when I'm on the macbook, Arch on the Desktop, 3.9 and (soon to be) System 7 on the A4000.  That's just a typical day and not one where I'm having fun trying out AROS or Haiku.

FAIL.
Error: Poll does not allow multiselect.

Agreed and +1.  I had to select the bottom entry because I use both MacOSX and Linux often and occasionally WinXP.

Voted Windows as that's what I use at work and on my gaming rig. I got Linux on the computer I use for actual "computing", but I guess I work and game to much for that to count. :P

Applications I am tied into direct which OS I use. Amiga for Octamed and Bars and Pipes and for the internet and various soft synths I use Windows 7. I've tried Ubuntu and although I like it it has no killer app for me. Work is Windows
                                                             
A1200 desktop, Blizzard 1260, OS3.9BB2, Indivision Mk II, SCSI Jaz, Ethernet
A1200 desktop, Blizzard 1230, OS3.1, Ethernet
A500, OS1.3

Did go back to vist32 for some software I wanted to use.
I do like Ubuntu 10.10 and miss it.
I may go to Debian 6.

My recommendations for linux (in order):

Arch, Mint, Debian, Ubuntu.

Killer apps? Terminal :D, and latest mplayer, libreoffice, wodim, genisoimage, DWM, vim, gedit...oh and a dedicated OS user group for Haskell.

I know there are the same on windows, but its so much easier for me on the linux side.

Debian 6 is actually really nice. I recommend it!

Wow... its odd how in the other poll AROS was the favourite and yet in this one no-one uses it (I thought there were versions of AROS in use just now for different platforms) !!!

I ran it in Virtual Box on Ubuntu 10.10. I agree with that.
I need another hd to get back to it.

MophOS and MicroXP .88 for my general day to day use. Workbench 3.1/Classic Amiga primarily for Musick, then Ubuntu and the Ipod OS for the road. I was a hard core BeOS user, but now I'm just waiting for Haiku to mature a little bit then I'll be using it a lot again too.

I never gave BeOS a chance, but I am very interested in Haiku :D especially if it gets a modern java machine and an eclipse port :lol:
