quick poll - which OS do you use for Pharo?

Hi,

I've made a quick poll because I'm interested in the distribution of Pharo users among OSes.

It's a single anonymous question, so it shouldn't take more than five seconds to complete :)

Thanks :)

I think that's because we GNU/Linux users tend to reply quicker when asked which OS we use.

You didn't ask about desktop (GUI) or server (headless). There probably a lot of people having a server running somewhere. I clicked both options: Mac and Linux

Me too, for the same reason. Desktop/server linux are two very different profiles.

I am using CzntOS 6.6 Linux for both client and server. Can't click twice ;-)

I haven't been using OSX anymore because there was always that annoying difference in the environment that was bringing surprises at deployment time.

There is a CentOS VM now but still not a first class zeroconf citizen, which I feel is very bad when one sees that CentOS/RHEL is used a *hell of a lot* in the enterprise. I need to work on that.

Greater surprise for me is that amount of Windows is greater than zero :) Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one stubborn fool who still uses that thing :)

Re: quick poll - which OS do you use for Pharo?

you are not alone. As a matter of fact my iMac's MacOS runs also windows 8 and ubuntu 14 in the Virtualbox VM. I was tempted to install windows as dual boot on my iMac because of a game I really like (Smite) but the temptation has not been strong enough. In any case supporting most platforms is my goal as (I assume) is the goal of most pharoers. Windoom will remain a necessary evil for a long long time.

Yes I completely forgot that linux reigns supreme on servers. Makes sense now with the mandatory web dev.

As a development desktop I recently build
a silent 4790K i7 with a Philips 40" UHD.
That was about half the price of the mac
equivalent. I strongly prefer the mac
interface, but this is more similar to
the server. The laptops are all macs.
Just pragmatic choices. If there had
been a 4-core mac-mini with 60Hz 4K,
I would have bought that.

I agree to the comments saying that there should be one choice for development and one for deploying.

I'm curious what the single vote for Other is :)
