What type of computer do you guys have? I'm looking forward to getting a actual working deskstop (F-ing laptop!), and I'm interested in what you use.
@Exanimis, kinda off topic to this but how did you get that virus, and what was it. That realllllly sucks. i'm using Vista on a crappy laptop, so I have a lot more protection, but I can't stand all Vistas drawbacks when it comes to gaming/modding.

I never found out what virus it was, it took over everything on my XP. It got through my firewall and shut down my anti-virus program. It infected everything on my machine even down to replacing my desktop with a yellow and red warning. I spoke with a man at the computer store and he said that nothing can stop it. He had several PC's that people had brought in that he was replacing the operating system on. I only managed to get my PC back to working order by running the system disks and restoring my machine. It did teach me a valuable lesson because now I store everything on a USB removable storage device. I shouldn't loose anything else.

My laptop runs Vista and I do mod on it but I don't particularly like Vista.

Yeah, when I get my desktop from Newegg.com, I'm going to store everything on a external hardrive and probably use Xp.

My computer's a custom build, thanks to my hubby. I'm using Vista and liking it well enough I suppose. With all the junk turned off I don't find it much more annoying than XP except for the constant "Are you SURE you want to run this program?" messages. LOL that reminds me of the Mac vs PC commercials ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxOIebkmrqs ).
