Yes.

Unless of course it's not OK for a woman to ask for a female to ask for a female officer to carry out body checks. In which case, the answer would be no.

This one is Vista, but my laptop uses 64bit Windows 7. I would hop over to Ubuntu but I would have to reinstall every program and back up every file etc. and I'm really not bothered.

Poll needs moar option (RedHat, Debian, FreeBSD come to my mind).

Anyway, currently: two on Win XP pro, one on Win Vista pro/Debian 5 (will soon be passed to XP pro, too) at home. At work, mostly on Win XP pro, but also on Win 7 business, Kubuntu, Debian, Win Server 2003, Win 2000 Terminal, Win NT 4.0 .

He just needs to eliminate Ubuntu from the list and replace it with Linux to compensate for all Linux distros.

FreeBSD isn't Linux. It's (mostly) Unix. Linux is just another variant (with many subvariants) of Unix.

I said "all Linux distros", since there are so many.
He should place Unix in it's own field, anyway.
And don't patronize me, I'm well aware of Linux being another variant of Unix, but the fact that Linux has grown so exponentially, it needs it's own section separate from Unix.

And since we're on that topic, he needs to include GNU.
Mind you, GNU, like Linux, is Unix-like. Not exactly Unix, but similar, retaining its own personality, per se.

It's called the Goofball OS. Sometimes it works and other times it just goofs around and draws attention to itself. :)

I have a steampunk one like that in Second Life, but this one runs Mac OS X 10.6.8. The work one is a T60 running some version of XP.
