Are you a multi-os user?

Although Mac OSX is my main OS I also use Windows XP, Windows 7, Linux Ubuntu, Fedora and Cent OS. I use Mac for all my main needs as well as my Video Editing, Graphic Design, Web Design, Visual Effect 3D and Compositing work. I use Windows (XP and 7) when I am at college and need the internet (the Mac's at college have had internet disabled to stop idiots using them for Facebook). I use Ubuntu and other Linux distributions for other tasks. How about you?

1	I use Mac Os X at home. At university I both use Mac Os X and Windows. My phone uses Android. :) answered Nov 02 '10 at 16:07 Hanhart 6.5k●29●55●126 edited Nov 02 '10 at 16:08

At home I use my Windows 7 laptop all the time...
At my school - they provide us with Windows XP laptops but you can't take them home and there are also 21.5" iMacs in the music suite
At my Dads work there is a 27" iMac hooked up to a 27" display so that is quite cool
At my Mums work there is a late 2009 MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard pre-installed
And my phone is a Nokia... 6300 so... yeah
At home there is also a 30" Cinema Display with a Mac Pro for the whole family - but I am the one who uses it the most because everyone in my house owns a Windows 7 laptop and my brother owns a Windows XP laptop

I practically use these computers every day except my Mums and Dads work Mac's.. I use these everyday because of installing new software - fixing them and so on... :)

Also on my laptop I have dual-booted Linux Ubuntu 10.04 - I really need to update...

0	I dual boot Win7 and Ubuntu with Ubuntu as my primary. My only reason for using Windows anymore is for games that absolutely will not run in Ubuntu. answered Nov 02 '10 at 19:04 Gorkon5567 2.5k●27●37●68
