Another Linux User saying hi

5. What am I using? Mac and Windows

Just having some fun.

But, seriously, both do contain open source software. Windows to only a small extent (like ftp.exe) and Mac OS X quite extensively (not only the core OS and web browser, but the server tools are almost all open source).

As far as Linux, after playing with many I settled on Ubuntu for workstation and CentOS (Red Hat) for server, both in VMs on the Mac. My responsibilities at work changed, so I almost never have a daily professional reason to use Red Hat anymore (which we used mainly for Snort, an awesome open source application), but I want to keep my general Linux knowledge up to date. Red Hat isn't my favorite, thus the others.

As far as workstation, I'm a serious stickler for an elegant and fluid user interface for daily use, and I still haven't found anything close to OS X in Linux.
