    I am Slackware Linux. I am the brightest among my peers, but am often mistaken as insane. My elegant solutions to problems often take a little longer, but require much less effort to complete.

    I like that!

    Windows XP- Under your bright and cheerful exterior (Yeah right!) is a strong and stable personality (wouldn't that be nice?). You have a tendency to do more than what is asked or even desired.

    Well, I guess I'm the second OS X. But as far as I know, I'm the most attractive.

    I am a Debian Linux.
    Most likely due to this answer:

    Windows 98 here. "You're a bit flaky, but well-liked. You don't have a great memory, but everyone seems to know you. A great person to hang out with and play some games."

    Actually I'd agree with that. What a surprise! :)

    Very interesting.

    There's a couple other boards I've seen this on, and it's ranged all over the place, but I saw a fair number of Palm OS people there.

    No one else, here, is palm. And I see more Linuxi than usual.

    It's interesting to see the difference in user base.

    I am Palm, but I don't even like the Palm OS. Punctual and straight forward maybe, but useful? I didn't like it, but then it has been a few years since I worked with it. Maybe it is gotten better. :p

    Palm OS - Punctual, straightforward, and very useful. Your mother wants you to do more with your life like your cousin Wince, but you're happy with who you are.

    Debian, Slackware, RedHat are all OS based on the GNU/Linux project. In short GNU which stands for GNU Not Unix, is the plan to make an OS that was like UNIX, but different enough that people could get it for free. GNU also started the copy left movement.

    HP-UX is a form of UNIX that was made at HP

    OS/2 was the brainchild of IBM. Was released the same time as Windows, but never caught on.

    Windows 95.

    The "zoning out" and "lacking in comunications" part seems to fit pretty well.
