Also if you pick Linux post which distro you use or if its custom.

I use a Custom Linux 2.6 OS.

If you want me to get all technical about it, I use Mac OS X, but I use the classic environment (OS 9) to play Lusternia.

What the Nil is BeOS? I've never even heard of that. (I thought FreeBSD was obscure, heh.)

BeOS... I remember back in the day when I booted my Mac/Be/Linux tri-boot system into BeOS, pulled up Sheep Shaver to boot Mac OS in a Be Window, and then used VirtualPC to boot Windows as a Mac window inside the Be window. Three operating systems at once! Needless to say, the Windows programs ran quite slow. BeOS was so cool. If it only had apps written for it, I would have erased my Mac OS install.

It was the greatest operating system ever made before Mac OS X. (In fact, during the Bad Old Days of Gilbert Emelio, there was rumour that Apple was going to buy Be to make their replacement Copeland OS vaporware, though of course that got canned for Mac OS X/BSD.) Bad business decisions sent them into the ground rather quickly. I believe Palm bought up their assets when they went under.

I could have gone more obscure, but I thought there was at least a chance (and I guessed it would be Roark) that someone used BeOS.

Ummm.. Open Windows Messenger, go to Preferences or Settings or whatever they call it and turn off load on startup.
