By the way, was your question really concerning "home only" or "in your whole life" ?
I think answering the questions "what system are you using at work and home" would be a more exciting question.
I think today everybody has to have a personal something, mac or Inel.
And at your work, what do you use ?
Sun-Os ? HP-UX ?
I use AIX at work, and home I will not answer because people could be jalous, come home and steal my computers.

I been with a IBM clone for the longest time. Try to start up a red hat server but got no where with the programing. Like the easy way to load programs on pc's It is a pain to load on a linx base computer. Dont care for mac computer ever sence my first taste with the old amiga computer put out by comador in the early to mid 80's. I been building computers for the last 20 years. I up grade one and save the parts build another and give the old one to the kids in the neighborhood that need a computer. But before they can take it home there parents must come over to pick it up.

Have at least 4 working and one non working pc. Want to get a server but un sure of which to get. Think I need to stay away from linux for I dont know anoff to mount programs to run on them and not anoff programs I know how to use. I'm leaning towards a windows base server. Think microdot is coming out with a new windows server soon think its called longhorn. Also waiting for compation too our cable company to get into our area. For I can get a deacated ip address from them for 10 bucks more amonth. With the cable company I have now they want 150 amonth so its just out of my reach and my ip changes every 24 hrs so i cant run a server and host my own web pages very easy. For with out a fixed point to come too you will have to host on a server away from your busness or home. I know I may of got of topic but it is my dream to have my own server and host my own pages and my own doman name.

I'm running my own machine, that I made, so there is no specific brand. I use Linspire and Windows XP Pro. I have High speed cable (T1 costs too much like 300 a month)

Both, actually. My main computer (Bubba, as I like to call him) is an Enpower Nitro I got a year ago at PC Club, with an AMD Athlon 64 1800, 80 gigabyte hard drive, a half a gig of RAM, and running Windows XP Home SP2.

I also have a three-year-old iMac G3, Maclena, running Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar, but sadly, her display fried recently, and I have to take her in for repairs. sad.gif

I have a PC. I never tried an mac, but I heard they run much faster. I don't think you can play games on a mac.

I use a IBM because I got it for my birthday and it works great. It is really fast and has a lot of extra memory. I am on it a lot about 5 times a day. I download a lot of stuff and still have over 150 gig hard drive left. So get a IBM they are awsome. And please thank me for the idea! j/k but think about it.

Oh my gosh....where the heck did you hear THAT?

There are a bunch of games available for Macs. Most FPSs or TPSs are ported from Windows versions, but some are made just for Macs, especially shareware games. You really need to get yourself into an Apple Store.

I got my computer from cyberpowerinc. P4 2.6 with windows xp sp2. I want to partition it soon and install some sort of linux so I can get fairly adapted to its environment. So far it's been a fairly good experience with this computer. Before this i had a computer from Micron that ran windows 98 sp1 w/ a 450mhz p2.
