Re: The 2021 Operating System Thread
Same, I voted Win-10 since my two most heavily used systems (New work laptop and Main personal laptop) are now on 10, but I have a mix of both 10 and 7 and some Linux as well.
New work laptop (HP Z-Book Studio G5): Windows 10 Enterprise.
Old work laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad T450): Windows 7 Enterprise (with paid extended support, eventually I'm supposed to send this back in, but I still have it for certain programs pending some software issues on my new Laptop).
Main Personal Laptop (Dell Precision M4800): Windows 10 Professional.
Main Desktop (Custom Built, I7-4790 and GTX1070): Windows 7 Professional.
Personal Travel Laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad T430): Windows 7 Professional.
Secondary Desktop (Dell Precision T3500): Windows 7 Professional
Main (living room) Media Center (Custom Built, C2D E8500 and Radeon HD5830): Windows XP SP3
Secondary (master bedroom) Media Center (Dell OptiPlex 790 SFF): Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
Of course I have more "experimental" and "retro" systems, but these are the ones used on a somewhat regular basis.

Re: The 2021 Operating System Thread
I also have a mix.
Main desktop: Windows 10
"Good" laptop (Lenovo ThinkPad P53): Windows 10 (maybe Linux in the future)
POS laptop (Toshiba Satellite L750): Windows 7 and Lubuntu
Other POS laptop (HP Pavilion ze1210): Windows XP and some ancient version of Ubuntu
Other POS laptop (Gateway Solo 2500): Windows 98SE
Old desktop (upgraded Compaq Presario 2286): Windows 98 "First Edition"
I was going to give the Toshiba laptop to my mom because she asked me for advice on new laptops under $300. I think she would be better off with it if she doesn't want to spend more. When (or if) she actually claims it, I will be free of Windows 7.Leave a comment:

Re: The 2021 Operating System Thread
Compared to the older atoms, these actually kick ass. Quite capable chips actually.
That said, they'll likely be semi-retired now that I'm running a dedicated truck (travel) laptop. Not as powerful as my main laptop (can't really run minecraft), but slimmer and more streamlined. Bought it for peanuts off a buddy who was having a hard time flipping it (cosmetically skunked, but functional).Leave a comment:

Re: The 2021 Operating System Thread
I have one copy of Win7 and now it's completely useless to me, I might well delete and reallocate it to...
Linux...
Odd that Wine works and Win7 does not, then again the particular windows software keeps updating and forces people to update their OS too *sigh*.
And hooray my win8 tablet lives again after apparently the PMIC got confused... crap design... Alas Linux support for the tablet last checked was pretty poor.Leave a comment:

Re: The 2021 Operating System Thread
My primary OS at home is Windows7. At work is Windows10 and I am thinking of replacing it with Windows7.
I also found a way to activate Windows 10 offline.
Anything older than Windows7 does not support new software.
Also, Microsoft released WindowsServer HyperV only as a free software. No GUI, but newer client versions of Windows have integrated management consoles for this, so GUI is not required. You do not need any activation. I never expected that Microsoft will ever release anything as freebie.Last edited by televizora; 01-01-2021, 10:36 AM.Leave a comment:
