Mac would be my favorite computer and my favorite system is Tiger because that is what my MacBook is currently running.

Moved from HH, since this isn't a frivolous post.

I personally prefer Macs, but Linux is pretty spiffeh. Mainly... anything except Vista.

I use PCs. I always have. But I don't like Vista. And programs, I don't know what I use...

My favorite computer is a free computer.

I don't really want to get into a big debate, but how many of you who seem to hate Vista have actually used it?

I've used windows all my life and like it, although I'm sorta getting into Linux too. (lol, sorta.. *cough*)

Like J-man, I've used Windows all my life and are getting into Linux.

But, of course he's not my double account! *cough*

My favorite computer is one that gets me good grades.

A big fan of AntiStudy? $\:D/$

Ever since I found out that computers existed, there was always something a bit wrong with Windows... and then I found out that I didn't *have* to put up with those few things I couldn't stand.

And now I'm a full fledged Linux user. $\:D/$

But... I don't think that I would be able to survive without the one Windows computer in the office. 'Tis necessary. Linux still has too many quirks to make it as liable as I need.

Anyway, my favorite computer is, obviously, mine. It has Ubuntu (which I pronounce wrong) on it, and runs really smoothly. I *pancreas* my computer. $\:D/$

Anti = against. Study = study. Anti Study = Against Study.

I repeat my previous question.

Perhaps the young delinquent is referring to the computer's ability to change grades...something about which I discovered far too much.

Nah... what do you know about that? *totally ignores what Eugene said*

My favorite computer is my black MacBook. (or the OSx86 project I was working on...)

Birdie and Lucy: You may be my 7th and 8th wife, for using linux $\:D/$ .

SivartM and J-man: Continue using linux, it's too awesome for you $\:D/$ .

And. Of course, my favorite OS is linux. My favorite computer is my laptop which runs arch linux, religiously.

I have another desktop with Arch on it which I use in my spare time.

My laptop specs are:

1.60GHZ Dual core AMD Turion 64 bit x2 processor.

2GBS of RAM.

128MB ATI Radeon Xpress 1150M (200M) Graphics card.

and to top it off, a DL +RW dvd drive, a 15.4 widescreen, and a lovely 160GB HD.

Under $700

.

How is Osx86 going Samwise? I wanted to go for it on my laptop, because it has an SS3 chipset, but I didn't have the badnwidth for like a 7gb Leopard DVD. And I don't have any tiger CD's laying around

You do not need a bandwith for 7gb Leopard; just purchase a copy from your local store. It isn't all that expensive neither.
The OSx 86 is working quite well. I actually have EFI emulation working so everything runs just like on a Mac. I used Q6600 Quad Core, 4GB-800 RAM, along with some old dvd and hard drive. As for WiFI I'm using a USB WiFI stick. I tested Adobe CS3 on it, and it functions perfectly. For legal reasons, I am not using the computer other than for experimental purposes. I also bought a copy of OS X to go with it.

There isn't an apple store to be found in Arkansas

.

I would love to test it, but I don't have the money for a CD.
