Windows 7. I doubt I'll ever upgrade to 8 or 10. By the time all support for 7 is cut I'll have probably migrated to Linux.

I managed to cut off updates mere days before the supposed forced update to 10 or whatever. Stuck with that old thinkpad for as long as I could until I said fuck it and bought a gaming computer. The internet adapter on the laptop was giving out anyway. I'm a stubborn ass with stuff like that but once I saw no way to migrate that hard drive to the new computer I settled in and now I actually enjoy using Windows 10

"extended support" just means they'll probably fix security vulnerabilities if exploits for them become widely available.

I just switched to Lubuntu on my Toshiba Satellite A-505 which I'm not terribly happy with but I'm going to stick with it. Then I dug an old Dell Latitude out of a closet that I had sitting around not using because the guy who gave it to me told me it had a dead hard drive. I installed LXLE on it and use it to take to school. Then I have Ubuntu Server 16.04 on an old dell that I got from the garbage that had a dead hard drive. I just replaced the drive with one I had around the house and now I use it to back up everything I want to save. Everything besides the server is using Linux kernel 4.7.0. The server is running the generic 4.4.0 right now because I can't be bothered to update it. I only updated it on the two laptops because it helped with some hiccuping issues they had when multitasking. The server never has to do more than one thing at a time though so I don't bother it.

The desktop does have a weird issue where the processor fan will speed up to 100% but I'm not sure what is causing it. I've been monitoring the temperature and it is always at idle temperature on both cores when this happens. I don't worry about it since I keep it hidden away in a closet running headless anyway.

I have a desktop that I never use that has a 5820k processor and an R9 290 GPU but I haven't touched it in months since drivers aren't that great and I don't feel like using Windows 10. I may turn it on after this semester to play Civilization again.

When combined with an up to date version of Common Sense™ that's about all you need on a desktop system.

the fan issues will likely be BIOS related but there are quite a few ACPI knobs you can turn to get to the source. you really should look into it.

I wish I was advanced enough to understand how to do Linux, from what i've read it's like the OS to pcs as Firefox is to browsers. ;-;

I had a dualboot of Win 7/Ubuntu but I never used Linux that much, eventually I just got rid of the partition on my harddisk to make room for more chinese cartoons.
Might mess around more with linux after I graduate.
>>117
Really not that hard. I'm pretty computer illiterate but I was able to set up a dualboot easily. Plenty of online help.

Slackware -- it's secure, stable, and Real Linux.

>>122
Managing your own dependencies is a bit out there for me, and that's coming from a gentoo user. Might as well just do LFS. What's secure about resolving binary dependencies? No use flags, no thanks!

>>123
If you are unsatisfied with the default libraries, you may as well use sbopkg. It's a terminal-based interface that resolves dependencies, building official .tar.gzs using slackbuilds.

I can't part with portage. I used slackware years ago and it wasn't totally unpleasant. I'd certainly prefer it today to something that was difficult to de-bloat.

Arch, stability isn't a concern when you don't have a job!

Debian stable: it's secure, stable, real AND reasonably up to date linux.

Windows 10. It's horrible. I was promising myself I would be on linux by now, but I haven't been able to get myself to switch yet.

I tried it out when I bought my new laptop. Never again. I'm going to wait until W7 dies before committing to Linux. Free software is only getting better with time.

It may not support my laptop's wifi card quite as well as Windows, but it makes up for it in every concievable way.

Dualbooting Slackware and W7 still.

Glad to know I'm not wrong for refusing to upgrade to W10. W8 was awful and W10 looked like a security headache. I guess W10 is better for battery life and performance but it doesn't look like it solves any of my problems with Windows

Recently switched to Slackware for no discernible reason other than because I can. Migrated from Ubuntu on this machine and Fedora on another.

It's not called OSX anymore, unless you're on a really old version. Now Apple's OSes are iOS, watchOS, tvOS, and macOS.
