Using where, and on which computers?

I tend to use a mix of Windows XP, Windows PE from a stick, and Linux from a stick at home (normally Knoppix, PCLinuxOS, Xubuntu, Fedora, or Mint since I'm still playing various distros against each other), and a mix of Windows XP, Windows 7, Solaris, Linux, and OS2200 at work. Oh, and the media box at home runs GeeXboX 2.0

Default Re: What Operating System are you using ?

Laptop & Desktop #1: OpenSuSE 12.2
Desktop #2: OpenSuSE 12.2 and Windows 7 dual-boot
4 Virtual Machines on Desktop #1 run Windows ME, XP, 7, and 8 RC. The Windows ME VM is to remind me that it could be worse.
Smartphone: Android 2.3
TV and Blu-Ray player run an embedded Linux OS, since I found references to the Linux kernel on the owner's manual copyrights section.
