What os do you use?

So I wanted to look what OS developers prefer to use for their main OS.
Anyway the rules are:
if(my_os == "Windows") post_version_of_windows();
else if((my_os == "Linux") || (my_os == "Unix")) post_version_of_unix_based_os();
else if(my_os == "Other") post_your_os_info();
if(multiboot == true){ post_multibooted_os(); post_most_frequently_used_os(); }
The code is written in C++ but refers to everyone who "speaks" other languages as well.

Yeah, I use Vista too. I'm a big fan of the free/open source movement and all that, but I stick with Vista because it has nice support, a streamlined interface out-of-the-box, in many cases better general usability than Linux, and awesome video games.

I see most people with Windows, heh why there is no os that have performance of linux and popularity of windows, than many of my problems would be solved
Anyway my move:
Multiboot Windows XP and Arch Linux (With OpenBox3 [thinking of going back to Gnome, or trying KDE]), most time using Arch (at least it was like this, the latest few days most of the time I'm on windows coding c#)

ReactOS? But that's unstable
.
Anyhow, I'm on Windows XP, I don't like Vista at all (don't want to rant here, I just don't like it
).

Vista and XP. Tried various Linux flavours in the past but I'm too set in my ways to change old habits now
Cheers,
