5. Computer OS preference?
I've used most of them (Linux variations, MAC OS and Windows 3.1 upwards) and I genuinely believe that Windows 8 is a triumph
Welcome Luke. But you missed out on RISCOS.

I still think Acorn Computer's RISCOS is the best OS there has ever been, and Computer Concept's Impression Publisher for Risc OS is the best wordprocessing & desktop publishing program. RIP Acorn.

Hear Hear Snozboz. I wish MS can learn and implement many good ideas from Acorn. Pity UK's community didn't support Acorn.

Quote from: avatastic Use the force Luke (or cricket bat as Adam W calls it).
In my day it was called the Attitude Adjuster or on nights the " put that ******* customer to sleep" tool and it usually lived near Annette's desk.
Note to Mods, I didn't use a swear word and i'm not trying to evade the filter. I just did stars.

Quote from: LukeS It was about 20 years ago. I can remember using an Acorn, I'm not sure why we still had them, but I can't be sure of the operating system.

It'll be some version of RISC OS.
Which also runs on the Raspberry Pi.
Which is what the forums are hosted on.
