Well, we all have used Unix, in one form or another (maybe even through embeded products). But which one is your favorite flavor of Unix-based/Unix-alike OSes? Read more and vote! Update: SHAME on you, who ever you are: Messing/hacking with go2poll's code and altering the results in favor of FreeBSD. By doing so, you are doing MORE BAD than good to your favorite platform.

First of all, I like unix. I first tried out linux close to 2 years ago. I originally tried Debian but that confused the hell out of me so I tried Mandrake right after that because it looked easier. It worked nice but it still felt kind of hackish. Soon after I discarded linux for anything but console work. It's gui just wasn't up to par with what I usually used (mac OS 9). After that i even got fed up with linux on the command line and moved to a mix of Free and OpenBSD (which I still use). Anyway, i still liked unix and mac os x finally caught my eye so I moved over. I can't say it's the snappiest thing i have ever used on my machine (400 Mhz iMac) but i still like it a lot. I can use word and photoshop along with just about anything unix my heart desires. It just works UI wise too and is very integrated. It's vachemont chouette!
