For some reason, the poll didn't work...sad.gif So which OS(s) are you running?

I mainly use Windows XP, but also have 3.11, 95, 98SE, 2000 and Red Hat 8 on Virtual PCs.

XP PRO SP2 is my primary OS.

I also play around with Linux LiveCD's. The other day it was SLAX, now Wolvix.
I like Wolvix because its fast, got a good amount of packages, and has the copy2ram boot option.

what i really want is something a core install of slax like popcorn with xfce, and a large repository of modules like wolvix availible for individual download. boot2ram is a must and xgl would be the icing on the cake.

for some reason i read the secondary box as

x-psp/2 and thought, woah, u use it as a psp/ps2 emulator? i never knew there was an os that did such a thing....and then after a while i realised it was just plain old xp!

I use pc-dos 6.30 (home brew) on one box, and ms-dos 10.50 on the other box. Like all DOS versions 10.x, these stem from an OS/2 vers 1.x. So it's MS-OS/2 vers 1.50. As with all versions of ms-dos since vers 8, you can't slip into straight dos mode. it loads a windows gui, here MS-BOB 5.0.

Currently installed is OS/2 vers 1.40 (WinNT), 1.50 (Win2k), 1.51 (WinXP), 1.52 (Win2k3), 1.60 (Vista), along with OS/2 2.45 (ecomstation). I have dos versions 5.50, 6.30, 7.10 and 20.45 installed. Maybe i'm amazed.
