What OS do you use?

[McWxXx]

Well I'd like to add windows 8 now. Got the lastest leaked build and it runs like a dream. Uses less resources then windows 7 at the moment, and way less then windows vista(GARBAGE OS!!!!)

If you are going to use any Linux kernels use one of these 2(By far my fav's)
+Ubuntu(Perfect for those who want security, and f'n hate m$)
+Backtrack(Perfect for those who just love to hack their "own" wireless networks, or websites.

Those are linux distributions not linux kernels. And backtrack is outdated, give Blackbuntu a try. Personally I prefer Fedora core over both. You can do the same pen testing on any linux distro, Backtrack and Blackbuntu just happen to have the tools pre-installed.

And backtrack is outdated, give Blackbuntu a try.

Gonna have to give that a try, my latest obsession involves pen testing and these neighbours wireless have been taunting me shaking their precious noodz all about the radiowaves!
I already have the WEP crowd taken care of, 3 mins each,great security... One was even a fully fledged linux network, i got the hell out of there that guys obviously crazy.

Also i have no idea why but i'm only running win 7 ultimate on x86 but this comps good for 64, think it was software or something stupid like that, can't be bothered to upgrade however. anything i need i just run in a virtual like my server :) i do love virtualisation.

I'm still running XP home edition. I want to upgrade to 7, but that would require a whole new computer.
