    At home is boring:

    1 Dual Boot XP/RedHat 9
    1 XP
    1 2000

    At work is the cool setup:

    1 2k3 Advance Server
    3 Novell Netware 6.0
    1 Novell Netware 4.0
    2 Win2K Servers
    1 Linux (RH9) Server
    1 Solaris Box that isn't being used right now

    Granted, that's nothing extremely special if you've got a big company, but considering I manage all those servers for a school, it's cool enough.

    Yeah, I know. The only reason is that I'm on an original iMac, so OSX would be painfully slow. I'll break down sooner or later and get a new Mac.

    Home desktop: OS X Jaguar, Win2K Pro (through Virtual PC, which I haven't used in forever; starting it up now... "Windows Update has found 38 critical updates for your computer." Oops... "Total: 38 = 37.49999999999999 MB" -- the kind of quality I've come to expect from Microsoft; 3 reboots required? Nice....)

    Home laptop: Win XP Home (the reason I don't use VPC too much -- that, and the fact that VPC is s...l...o...w...; maybe I should install some minimal Linux distro on it? Anyone here ever try that?)

    Work: Win2K Pro

    Redhat and Mandrake, even Slackware, are friendly with laptops. However, I wouldn't expect dial up to work, only the network card. I am running Linux on my Gateway book now.
