When editing my profile, I noticed the following:

QUOTE
OS Preference
What operating system do you use?


It's not really a big deal, though when I read that, I see "OS Preference", which in my mind, means which OS do I prefer; yet under that, the question following is: "What operating system do you use? And I use Windows, but personally prefer Linux, so maybe that could be changed?

It doesn't really matter. You could put your favourite, or whichever you're currently using.

I think, personally, it's best to put the one you're currently using, particularly if you ask for help a lot. This means that whoever chooses to help you can see which OS you're using, and determine what would be the best advice. smile.gif

haha, well, If I run my favorite version of Linux(Ubuntu), then I don't get full stability when running Windows® executables via WINE. If Windows® executables ran with full stability, then I would be stuck with Linux.

Does that make things clear? Sometimes I am hard to understand.
