Some pretty old Windows, runs nice and slow, only use this baby because it is on a really old netbook. Hell yeah.
Mostly 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium, I should have got Pro though.
I also have XP on a my dual booting Hackintosh.
OSX to play around with because it is cheap.
Mint 10 as a free thing to mess with and run live sessions of gParted and stuff like that.
My netbook dual boots XP and UNE 10 (Ubuntu Netbook Edition).
Finally my work laptop runs XP and will stay that way until microsoft pulls the pin on corporate support. They will be upgraded to 7 then. I run a USB with Mint 10 so I can do what I want with the machine without breaching any internal IT rules.
Windows 7 is nice and I won't upgrade unless I must.
EDIT: I forgot freeNAS on my NASbox.

Windows 7 Ultimate 64.
Used to run Vista, and was perfectly happy with it, but 7 is legendary. And has DX11.
I'd love to run 7 on my study laptop as well, but sadly it'll have to stay with XP 32 as I'm not certain how well it would handle it.
Next project is a home-built NAS server, planned to run under Windows Home Server 2011
Not entirely sure on the exact specifics of the hardware, but something along the lines of an i3, 4 gigs of DDR3 and 3x1TB 7.200RPM drives which currently sit in my stationary.
Basically, it's a matter of moving my crap off my 800w stationary, and onto a low-power always-on solution.

Snow Leopard. Been a Mac user since the Apple II. Dabbled in PCs, but always found myself coming back.
I use Mac OS Snow Leopard. It's pretty fucking useful. And that's coming from someone who's always used Windows.
Other than that, my gaming PC downstairs is in disrepair, but once I clean it out and flush the HDD, I'll be installing Windows 7.

Reeeeelax. That is the most defensive post I've ever read.SnootyEnglishman said:
I also own a Mac which I use for writing projects and research and other work related activities, it's running OSX Tiger. It does exactly what it's supposed to do and doesn't give me a hard time.
My gaming machine is a PC running Windows 7 currently, because I got the OS at auction really cheap. Since I know how to maintain a computer I haven't had any problems with it.
Quad booting:
Windows 7 64 (for games)
Windows XP (for work that doesn't involve coding, plus any games that don't work in 7)
Scientific Linux (for coding)
Ubuntu (for media)
Took me a whole day to get it all working properly but it's the perfect system for me.
