Windows mainly, Used linux before and did not like it, Used XP, Vista, 7, 8 and the best of them at it's time was XP, 7 was great OS too IMO.

I've always used windows.  Macs are too expensive for a lot of people.

I use the good old windows still. I really wanted to go linux once but gaming and ease to use makes me stay at windows.

Recently i feel Ubuntu has passed Windows when it comes to ease of use. Except if you want to play games.  Grin Then Linux is quite the hassle.
I run Xubuntu myself, and I even managed to make my dad switch from Windows to Ubuntu.

I tried to use Linux many times, but I always found it too difficult and switched back to Windows because. Anyway, I think if I buy a second computer, I will try again to use some Linux distro...  Smiley
Same here  Sad Whenever i try to install linux (ubuntu  mostly) i always fail to install it long with windows. Finally i'm using windows 10 enterprise now.

You guys should give Elementary OS a shot. It's designed to be really easy to use, you don't have to learn the terminal/commands. Plus it's gorgeous and uses very little RAM, check it out on YouTube. It's been a full year now since I moved to eOS from Win 10 (since the Insider program) and I totally love it. For gaming I have the Steam client installed which is all I need really Smiley

Windows 10, Chrome OS and Android. I used to use SuSe on a desktop, but that's not too handy for mobile computing. I want to start using Ubuntu, and that's the reasonI bought the Win 10 notebook, but atm I seem to have got myself locked into Windows to my regret.

Just as an example, a close friend of mine was having trouble getting skype to work on Windows. It worked in the past but it suddenly stopped working whenever she plugged her USB headset in. Continued to work with built-in mic but not the headset.

For several days I tried helping her, figuring out what was wrong with it. Bought a new headset, that didn't help either.

Finally I asked a friend. His response "First thing to try is always a reboot"

So we did that and suddenly her skype started working with the USB headset.

That would have never occurred to me because rebooting is never the solution in Linux.
