[POLL] What operating system(s) do y'all use?

[Pokéidiot]

So, I created this thread to know what OS(es) do y'all guys uses.
If possible, reply your opinions about them, and why do you use it.

Spoiler: Answer to my own question

I personally use Ubuntu and Windows (dual-boot), because I feel like both Linux and Windows has it's particular things. For example, Ubuntu is excellent for developing things in languages like C, C++ and Java and also it's stable enough for daily usage (browse internet, skype, etc). About Windows, I prefer it for gaming, since it has a sea of games, applications, etc., and .NET development. .NET is excellent for developing massive GUI projects, due to Visual Studio's robust designer. I like it, and I personally did a lot of things in it (however none of these I did finished).

Currently just Windows 10 and Windows 7 because I don't have my own computer.
Also you should add an option for BSD variants in the poll, as well as an OS X option.

Added! well the pool is a bit long

Is it Free/Open Source? If the answer is yes, then I've used it.
I am currently running Fedora 23, but normally I run Chakra OS.

It's not the theme that's the issue... I ran 7 back in 2012, then Vista in 2015-2016 and preferred Vista.

OS X 10.11 on a 2015 MBP, although I wish I could run 10.9 on this thing, seriously I start to miss Scott Forstall.

Honestly it's not too bad if you have transparency off and replace the folder icons with darker ones, but Ive still has a lot to learn in terms of UI design.

Windows 10

 

[Touko White]

am I the only one here who liked 81....

 

[Temptress Cerise]

Windows 10.

However, I do have the following setup for fun.
ESXi boot -> into the following VM's -> Windows 10 + Ubuntu + OSX 10.11
Then using Synergy to use my Keyboard and Mouse on all three. It's damn amazing, but I do have to split my computer's resource when using this, so it's not exactly that great, doesn't help either that I have to pass through a graphics card for each one. But it's fun to use every once in a while.

VMs I have are Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 10, Ubuntu, and of course OSX 10.10 and 10.11.

On the Windows 7 machines, were they pre-installed, or did they come with Vista/XP/etc.
