Right now I use a Windows machine if only because XP was stable when I bought the thing.
My machine is a WAMP machine as oppose to the purely open souce LAMP, the AMP being Apache, MySQL and PHP.
I also run Mozilla Thunderbird, Firefox and Sunbird.
A lot of it is because I'm sick of the games being played by Microsoft.
