I use Solaris 9 at work. Hopefully we'll get to ten soon.
I had a play with ubuntu a little while back but went another direction.

You might call OS X the flashest distribution of Linux out, but BSD is not Linux, although both are versions of Unix (as is Solaris).Originally Posted by Captain_Rightfoot

I would agree with you - if you have a Mac, why would you want to run Windows? But there are some people who are very much into games and this could be a reason, also could be attractive to those running Windows but thinking of changing to Mac.
