I was pure amiga until about 1996/97 when I built my first win NT workstaion. (needed speed for 3d animation) It sucked and I got beamed up into SGI country. Bein running Irix and Linux since then. Did try win 2000 and winXP and even beoOS. Have a winXP box at home for my girlfriend... she does design work with it, I use it for casula browsing. At work I have a linux box. At home I still run my ortane2 with irix, runns maya just fine for R and D work and coding. I also have a readhat system thats realy fast for rendeirng. I also have an a3k/par and an a4k with a toaster/flyer at this point mainly for fun but find the a3k060 fast enough for casual browsing and find I use it qute a bit still!
