    Default What Operating System Do You Use?

    I Just thought I would see what OS (s) people are using.
    I currently have:
    Desktop running Windows 7 Pro 64bit
    Netbook running Windows XP Pro 32bit & Ubantu Netbook
    Laptop running Windows XP Pro 32bit
    Server running Ubantu Server

    Also i would like to know why people are running Windows 7 Ultimate compared with Pro...have any of you actually noticed what the differences are??

    I'm currently using Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit

    The main differences between Ultimate and Professional are that Ultimate has BitLocker and the language pack.

    Which one is right for you? - Microsoft Windows

    Windows 7 64 bit only because its nearly impossible to install ATI drivers for my 5970 video card on XP and when you pay that much for a VC you want it to work to perfection.

    Same here. Who in their right mind would buy retail. Just get a TechNet subscription and get 10 copies of Windows 7 (each version) and Office 2010, along with many other Microsoft products.

    SERVER: Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 64-bit
    DESKTOP-1: Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 64-bit

    Vista Home 32bit. Despite it's bad reputation, I haven't really had any dramas with Vista - well no more problems than any previous versions.
    But my OS has been installed for a couple of years now, so it's really starting to slow. Next install will be Windows 7. I'm thinking about going 64bit version too so the system can access more than 4GB of RAM. Most software now is compatible with 64bit
