Line 36:
I use a lot of OS's, depending on which physical system we're talking about...
My workstation (soon to be retired, except for x64 testing):
*[[Windows]] [[wp:Windows XP|XP]]
*[[wp:Windows XP Professional x64 Edition|WinXP x64]] for testing my programs
**<s>[[wp:Windows Vista|Windows Vista]] and newer are ''way'' too slow on my systems to be usable</s> ''my system'' is too slow for [[wp:NT6|NT6+]]
*[[MS-DOS]] 7.1 (from [[wp:Windows 98#Windows 98 Second Edition|Windows 98SE]])
My server:
*[[wp:Slackware|Slackware]] [[Linux]] 13.37
**Waiting for Slack 14 to be officially released...
My next computer (a higher-end tablet, currently saving up for it):
*[[wp:Windows 7|Windows 7]]

==My Sourceforge projects==
*[http://eeshell.sourceforge.net/ EEShell2] -- a replacement shell for 32-bit Windows
**only tested through WinXP
**apparently only usable through Win7; written in VB6, which is unsupported in Win8... or so I've heard
*[http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/igrokya/ IgrokYa] -- a file type identifier (like [[wp:file (command)|file(1)]]; originally part of Proxlat (below))
