Everything
I have 98se on my desktop and xp on my laptop. I also have 98, 95 and 3.11 for networks on floppies and cds. We also have Mandrake 9 on one computer and OS9 on another.
I'm very happy with my 98se and I wouldn't change it for the world
My computer has XP on it. It came with it. Next to the other Windows systems, I love it.
Windows XP Of Course
I use Windows 2000 at work and on my two home laptops, but Windows XP Home Edition on the main home computer. I would like to have XP Pro. I play a lot of graphics intensive games and build computers to play the games. XP is great for games. Win 2000 is only for business, but games can be played if they are Windows type games. If you have any old DOS based games, you will never be able to play them on a 2000 system without a lot of tweaking. Regarding MaC, I have some coworkers who use it a home. It is actually nothing merely than a UNIX based system.
XP Professional here at home and at work
Windows XP at home, Windows 2000 at work and Windows 98 at parents house.
XP, Although the security issues bug me we keep it up to date, we upgraded from ME which everyone seems to have had problems with..... except me?!? ME ran on my old computer for the 3 years I had it with no problem (and It's still going strong in it's new home).
XP all the way here!
Lets see here, I use ProTools, Acid, Soundforge, Wavelab, T-RACKS 24 and a few others. I use a ton of vsts and plugins also on top of that which would be way too many to name here (I have over 400 plugins, DX and VST, that I use).
XP Home Edition on this computer (notebook), and Windows 95 on the PC upstairs I use for work-related matters (tests, grade lists, etc.). I've been using the 95 since 1997, and it has never crashed. Wish I could say the same about XP.

When I couldn't get 98 again after I switched to ME (ugh, that sucked), I considered 2000, but I heard there could be quite a few problems with games. I think I stuck with ME for a while just for that.
Haven't had problems with games like Warcraft3, Gayax, Lineage, or DO Online with XP Pro. I can play old DOS games with DOSBox.

I linux for what it is, but it still has a way to go for the laymen to understand it , however its getting closer each month. I've ran linux for 5 years now and I still have questions about it. For beginners I would recommend either Red Hat or Mandrake. I loved the Corel Linux, but I'm not sure if they still produce it or not.

Meh, you can set up a *nix system to look just like Windoze if you want to.
But FreeBSD > Linux

Why not? It'd be fun
Then we can drag in Dragonfly BSD to make things more interesting!
