Hi all,
Being a develope Which OS You preffer to work on?

Caste ur votes now!

The reason I use Macs are because I am not quite good enough to use Linux or Unix, I like things really simple sometimes. Mac is a Unix based OS so I still posses a fraction of that power. If I did a lot of developing I would probably want to switch over to Linux, all of my colleuges who develope extensively use it.

I Agree with you buddy, but if Linux and Unix having a lot of backend support by open source community,

i prefer windows, because clients prefer windows. If clients prefer linux or other os, i prefer linux or over os.
But i think linux is more interesting for developer that windows.

Solaris is an unix like!!

I personally perfer Linux.
And, technically, it's GNU/Linux.
But I've heard about Mac's.
They seem to have the best of both world's in being having a lot of software like Window's while still having a stable UNIX foundation (called Darwin).

At the moment I prefer Windows beecause I have always used it and its quite simple. If I really wanted to get a truly brilliant website going and decided not to be stingy and get a web server at home I would probably go with Linux though. It has no viruses, is widely supported and is of course free. It is probably the most secure OS available, which is what you want when hosting a website

I prefer Windows, but am warming up to Unix

I prefer Window because i never use another OS. Window can support with the most program. I use Window in my school or cafe when i came back to home, i use Window. I'v ever seen Linux in computer shop. I want to try for sometimes but now i'm enjoying with Window.

I chose Windows because its what I have been taught and what most people use. Linux programming is probably easier than windows if you are using c++ but there are a bunch of languages that are used in both platforms like php, python, perl just to name a few. I am a big fan of cross-platform programming so languages like java or perl are good.

I use Windows 2000 for the time being until I manage to find a copy of System 9.2.2. for my Macintosh. I prefer the Macintosh, although I'm really most comfortable with text-based interfaces. I used to use slackware linux, and I'm currently downloading Solaris 9 to either replace or dual-boot with Windows 2000. Most likely replace it. Windows may have the largest user base out there, but even in 2000, the Blue Screen Of Death STILL says hi to me often. I've never used solaris before, so that will be a little different.
