Default What Operating system is for me
Well I'm all confused out.

My background of OS's:

I been with windows for many years (Since 2003). The main 2 "windows" I use are Windows XP and vista. I tested 98, 2000, Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, Windows Vista (all in X86 - X64 for WS2003/XP/Vista)

Than I found out about linux. I tried Ubuntu 6.10 (at the time), went back to windows later on because of gaming. Moved back to ubuntu 7.04 than 7.10 (64-bit edition). I been on and off from windows to linux pretty much.

I never tried MAC OSX on my hardware. I only emulated it on VMware and the current DVD I have (MAC OSX 10.4.10) doesn't work because it can't find the root drive


What operating system is good for me.

Only Vista x64 is worth getting out of the x64 OS's... And I don't see Vista running too amazing on that setup... Maybe you should dual boot XP x86 and Vista x64. Perfect combination!
