Windows 7; although in retrospect I probably should have selected the "use multiple" as I also use my 'droid phone pretty extensively.

Dunno where I'd be without it, these days. I stopped using Windows full time back in the Windows 2000 days.

Naturally, MorphOS 2.7 for most uses. But I also have Ubuntu, Win Vista, Win XP Media Center and Win 2008 Server R2 on various other platforms.

Second place for me would be Windows XP and third should read "AmigaOS 3.x" - but this option doesn't seem to exist. :-)

I think that's what the option "Amiga Workbench (1.x - 3.x)" is meant to cover... ;)

I've been using Windows XP for daily use since 2004, but lately I've been weaning myself off it because I'm damned if they're going to make me upgrade to 7 or 8. Instead, I've been acclimating myself to Linux (Salix x86) so that I can be free once and for all when this netbook finally gives up the ghost.

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