Essentially, the big problem with my development environment was that I had a billion environment variables that I needed to keep changing and that was managed through a bunch of old scripts that would break really easily.

I wonder if we should add "Mobile: (e.g., iOS, Android, etc)" to the list, as some people seem to only use their phones these days...

I'm using WIN 7 on my latest desktop, and WIN XP SP2 on the oldest. I tried Vista once but I don't like, it's too annoying,and buggy and almost all the softwares I use on XP don't work on it. Never had the same problem with WIN7. I find it the most stable of all,and I prefer it over XP

My primary OS is OS X 10.6.7, but I've also got Windows 7 Professional dual-booted on my MacBook. I use OS X about 95% of the time, I only hop over to Win7 when I want to play a non-mac compatible game such as the Star Wars Jedi Knight series games.

I assume you mean the installer scripts and binaries developed by the now defunct Loki Games.
You can find updated versions of those at http://www.liflg.org/

I'm currently using Windows 7. I really enjoy this version the most. I'm very satisfied with it.

Still using XP~! :grin:

Works great for me. Don't plan on upgrading anytime soon!

Update: I'm now on OS X Lion (10.7), and since I use my iPhone quite a bit to access here I'll give iOS 4.3.5 a mention as well.

Windows Seven, though it's mainly because my old comp couldn't function any more, so I figured why not

I use Arch-Linux

I really want to try Gentoo(RMS 4ever) But for now I am sticking with Arch Linux.
Arch Linux is more of a DIY distro.
The package manager is very different in Arch linux, it's called: pacman.
I try to stay away from debain-based distros.

Two Computers: (Laptop and Desktop): Windows 7
My Childhood Computer that is alive that is used for old Computer Programs: Windows ME
The Old Computer that I still have for when my nephews and niece come over: Windows XP Professional.

I keep my computers and if they stop working, I fix them to the best of my abilities.

Since I just bought myself a new laptop, I am now operating on Windows 7.

PostPosted: **Fri Jan 06, 2012 1:20 pm**

Since we're counting Android, just got myself a Galaxy Nexus (so moved from 2.3.7 on the Nexus One to 4.0.1-yakju).

I use XP, the most beloved OS of all time.

The one they're dropping all tech support for when Windows 8 comes out in a few months? (I have friends that are so upset over this)

Wait, what?! No, no! Say it ain't so!

What in the heck? XP is the most popular Windows OS ever! They're just shooting themselves in the foot.

No, that isn't true. Most versions of XP will have support through April 2014.

I recently started using Ubuntu 10.04 on my PC and I also have been using iOS since before I got saved.

....Salespeople lied to me. So not happy about that :shady:

Ah, well. I'm actually pretty happy with Windows 7.

PostPosted: **Sun Jan 08, 2012 4:36 pm**

Actually, mainstream support for XP has already ended, according to Wikipedia.

PostPosted: **Sun Jan 08, 2012 7:41 pm**

Mainstream support, yes. That means there won't be any more service packs or minor to moderate fixes. Extended support still covers security updates of sufficient acuity and high-priority bug fixes.

Still, in fairness to the otherwise duplicitous salesperson Atria35 encountered, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to not use Windows 7 unless you have a particular software requirement or must support older hardware.

Win 7 64-bit at home, Win 7 32-bit at work. Also been looking to fiddle more with Ubuntu and VDK when I have the time.
