Which OS shall I install?

Right, I just reformatted my PC and I don't know which OS I should install so you guys can decide!

If you choose "Other" please state which OS you reckon I should install.

Yeah, I have used 7 before and it was much better than Vista.

Nah, I don't do Apple. Can't stand them lol.

There are ways of doing it, but I heard it can be quite complicated.

win 7 or XP mate

Vista is only good for people who only want to show off and don't care about performance

I wouldn't install a beta build of an OS if I were you. Anything could happen.

i've been using the windows 7 beta for about a month and its been fine so far. Ive had a few hiccups but its definately the most stable OS beta I've used. I've got this and windows vista on dual boot and windows 7 seems to be faster and just better overall. I'm one of the very few who actually liked vista and I think windows 7 is far superior.

Looks like its going to be Windows 7!

I will install which ever one is leading at 9.00 tonight.

P.S. Vote for XP!

you could always dual boot, as long as you have 2 spare partitions (google it if you don't know how) you can have both operating systems on 1 machine.
