I'm lucky, I only use Win7 on one machine for analysing javacores and heapdumps(and thats only because we aren;t allowed to connect "unauthorised OS's" to our networks which is stuffed full of IBM AIX LPARS! )
, my work PC is XP but is only really a thin client putty host as all my stuff is on Unix anyway


for me Unix/Linux based systems are still the only viable reliable OS for everyday Internet use. After all its good enough for all those iPhones and Android phones out there...
All this tech talk is okay Ian, but I only know where the on button is on any computer mate
