Perhaps you the poll could be changed so those of us who have more than one OS installed can list all of ours? ;D
I'll vote after that's done, but for now I'll say I have Windows 7 and Fedora 13 (both 64-bit)

I didn't imagine most calculator hobbyists use or experiment at least one Linux distro.
It must be because we all spent time searching/reading about technologies on the web.

And I my Windows 7 is in 64-bits. It is cool to find builds for 64-bits that bring noticeable speed ups, for example, desmume (best nintendo ds emulator out there but still a few games run slowly). 7-zip 64-bit also seems fast.
I haven't seen many compatibility problems related to 64-bit in Windows. There are some Linux OSes with 64-bit builds but I won't test that soon.

My desktop dual boots Linux Mint 9 and Windows 7, which I only use for Steam. The netbook has Ubuntu 10.04, but I've been meaning to install Mint for a while now.

I currently run Windows 7 on my laptop.  In my house, I also have computers running Windows XP and Windows Vista.

Vista on both desktop and laptop.
Why are Vista and 7 the same option?

Personally Vista kind of reminds me of TI-OS 2.53.  A lot of things that worked previously don't work now.

I run Ubuntu as my main OS and use Vista when something does not work well in Wine. I also had a Fedora LiveUSB for a while
Silver Shadow: fine by me

Done. But since this moved the order of the entries, the votes were incorrect, so I reset the poll. I hope that people won't mind if they have to re-vote.
