With Windows 7 out, I ask our readers, what operating system do you run on your primary home computer?

This poll is in conjunction with this week's Technology Round-up, which made its triumphant return (http://j.mp/APtech110809) this weekend!

I have XP. What's so special about 7? I am soon going to be two operating systems behind most people; I've never even touched Vista.

Hopefully I'll be running Snow Leopard soon, maybe Windows 7 too just to try it out.

If I was smart/disciplined enough to learn linux I'd use that, but alas, I'm not.

EDIT: Oh yeah... Vista. Don't feel like upgrading.

Are the Mac OS's really all named after cats? Wow...

I'm surprised Windows 2000 isn't listed. It was the most stable until they made a lot of changes to XP (I now use XP Pro).
