Windows,
3.1
95
98
ME
NT
2000
Dos, every version.
Linux
Unix
OS/2
Mac OS/#-x
sun os
Xenix (hehe)
AIX (I think this and the one above is a unix clone from ibm and microsoft not sure)
Umm there are many more just cant think of them right now, as soon as I hit the summit button I will think of more.

If Windows CE is an OS, so is PalmOS. Ok, reviews???
Hmm, Windows CE is pratically a portable entertainment center that's useless for business use. It's also expensive and drains batteries quickly.
Palm OS is aimed for usability for businesses (ppl who need these things most). It also doesn't use as much electricity.

Now, in the words of Todd, "Please don't dig up old threads."

I love WindowsCE when it comes to boring school assemblies (sp?). Well, if it had games on it... :D I found it very useful for killing time and sleep prevention.

I like Linuxsucks.com (http://www.linuxsucks.com) myself. :)

>EDIT<
Why Linux Sucks (http://www.spatula.net/proc/linux/index.src) is good too. :) :) :)

Linuxsucks.com exists because:

1. People are afraid to use it because of the complicated syntax.
2. Not too many people know of its advantages.
3. These people kiss Microsoft's worldwide ---.
4. These former users of Linux fuxx0red up their machines because they are idiots ;)

I knew that post would bring out the kidiots!


"1. People are afraid to use it because of the complicated syntax."

How dare people want something user-friendly!

"2. Not too many people know of its advantages."

Not too many people CARE about it's advantages.

"3. These people kiss Microsoft's worldwide ---."

You'll find that happens when you're #1.

"4. These former users of Linux fuxx0red up their machines because they are idiots ;)"

"Everyone's dumb but me!" The Linux user war cry.

Yaay! Flame war! :D

"How dare people want something user-friendly!"

How dare people want to use something that crashes every 15 seconds! (Figuratively speaking, it can happen.)

"Not too many people CARE about it's advantages."

That's because they don't know about it. Would you rather pay 700$ for legal software or 0$?

"You'll find that happens when you're #1. "

Why the hell do you support Microsoft? Do you work there? Are you a fan of their so-called support? Are you a fan of ASP pages that take 30 seconds to load? Are you a fan of their slip-shot work? Are you a fan of incompatibility issues? Are you a fan of security holes? Are you a fan of the Code RED and Code RED II virii? Are you a fan of their so-called MSN Internet Access which is most likely worse than AOL?

"'Everyone's dumb but me!' The Linux user war cry."

What kind of a response is this? Do you realize that my first post on this matter said former users of Linux?
