Currently all Windows 8.1 (Even Windows Phone 8.1 :O)... I'm keeping my eye out for the latest ElementaryOS release, which will be based on Ubuntu 14.04, to dual boot on my laptop.

Work PC is Windows 7
Work laptop is Windows 7 dual boot with Elementary OS
Home PC is 8.1
Raspberry Pi is openelec

I have used Arch Linux a lot in the past, had it as my main distro for a long time but missed gaming so i switched to windows os. I don't miss the regular updating with Arch one bit!

I easily migrate between OSX on my work laptop, to Windows 7 on my work pc, windows 8 on my home laptop and Ubuntu on another machine at home. I am thinking about checking Linux Mint out thogh.

My ideal is os x. I use it on my mbp and I find I'm most productive when working on my Mac. On my main PC I run Windows 7 for gaming then reboot to Ubuntu (upgraded to 14.04). I prefer anything with a true command line..

Like @Schamper I am also keeping my eye on ElementaryOS.

I've always been a windows person. Linux scares me

alright the reeeaal reason is that somebody has to test NodeBB on windows, and I've taken the liberty of doing that. taking one for the team and all that

julian

Yeah, pretty soon we'll make him "Internet Explorer Quality Assurance Team (of 1) Lead"

@psychobunny yet I have reported quite some Windows specific bugs..

julian

Haha actually, @psychobunny has only just started to develop locally on his box -- prior to that, he was working remotely on our development server

Related to Ubuntu I can only cite:

When the screen is locked with password, if I hold ENTER after some seconds the screen freezes and the lock screen crashes. After that I have the computer fully unlocked.

Sad thing:

This bug affects 3 people

I feel sorry for them ^^

@frissdiegurke At least it looks like they fixed it pretty quickly

I've tried a bunch of Linux distros, while studying Multi Media Design I had a Macbook, now I'm on Windows 8 (video editing) / Linux Mint and either Linux Mint or Arch Linux on my Laptop. The raspberry PI runs rasbian/debian atm.

I can only recommend a command line workflow for every node or general developer. It's just so much less of a pain on Linux or Mac os, compared to Windows.
