Duelbooting Fedroa and XP on my Laptop. My Desktop runs XP as well as a half-finished Arch Linux installation which is like building a kit car. Starting with fabricating the parts yourself. Bloody hard. I'm replacing it with either Knoppix or Fedora.
Currently using Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
My laptop has Vista.
As for first, hmm, that'll be IBM PC-DOS probably about version 2, although I've tried 1.x PC DOS was made by Microsoft for the original IBM PC, then MS later sold a version of it for PC clones as MS DOS.
I've used many versions of DOS, both IBM and MS versions, and also a couple of versions of OS/2.
Favourite versions of DOS were IBM DOS 3.30 and MS DOS 5
As for Windows, the first version I used was Windows 286 (or was it 386? I forget). Anyway that was a variant of Windows 2.x
I've since used Windows 3, 3.1, Windows for Workgroups 3.11 (still my favourite of the ones that loaded on top of DOS)
After that was the usual Windows 95, 98, 2000, XP, and Vista. I had the good fortune never to have Windows ME installed on a machine I own.
Windows 7 is my favourite OS so far

First one was Win 98, now it's Open SUSE and Win XP, since I haven't yet found a reason to replace XP.
Trust me. You don't know what you're missing with Windows 7. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.231817-Poll-The-Horrors-of-Windows-Vista-and-the-Wonders-of-Windows-7?page=1]Firetaffer said:

I have XP. I want to be able to run my old games so I use that. I may need to switch to Windows 7 soon though.
I believe my first OS was Windows 98, but I'm not sure.

First was Windows 95. Currently use Windows 7. (Windows 7 rocks XP's face off btw.)
Occasionally use Ubuntu, some point in the future will also occasionally use OS X (When I can afford the damn laptop...).
Being a Programmer, it's kind of important to be competent with the various OS'es out there...

Windows 7, XP, and windows 3.1.
Wish I could use XP on my newer machine though, windows 7 has nothing useful for me expect the ability to cycle the desktop background through an image folder. The filing system has changed for 7, I don't know where anything is anymore.
