What Operating System do you use?

Advertisement Placeholder
I used a linux in the past now I just use Windows , I don't have a particular reason for choosing windows over other operating system though but they serve me well anyways.
 
From the onset,i have been making use of windows operating system.i am very conversant with their features.
 
At the moment on my main PC that I do a lot of my work from, I am running Windows 10 but on my laptop that I have had for around 7 years now, unfortunately the original hard drive in it died on me and I had to switch out to a smaller one so the only option was for me to put Linux on the laptop. Luckily I only use my laptop when I am in bed or for times I do not want to be sat at my desk so it works for what I need it to work for.

I would love to be able to upgrade my PC to Windows 11 but because my hardware is so old now, it's not possible for me to upgrade so a newer PC would be needed. I am hoping to upgrade at some point as soon as I can afford to do so.
 
I have made use of Windows all my life. I don't even know why I don't have any liking for a different operating system.

I've been hooked on Windows since I tried 3.11 for the first time. I am currently on Win 10. Unless there is a compelling need to upgrade soon, I'd prefer to continue with the current version. I've gotten too lazy over the years 😩
 
I prefer Linux ....... In my all systems i use Linux because its free and second there are not any tension of Virus. About all features like Libre Office, GIMP, Inkscape etc. for no any additional charge. Prefer always Ubuntu or Linux mint.
 
For me I use Windows. However I don't have any reason for using this Burt I can use any operating system so long as it's working fine with me.
 
While I find myself using Windows 10 in general, MacOS/iOS whatever at work and various flavours of Linux for servers (both), I still do a surprising amount of stuff in Amiga Workbench 3.x.
