nintendo wii ... oh wait!
Ubuntu, once on a Mac and once on a PC.
PC should probably be split into Windows and Free OSes, at a minimum. In popular culture it's okay for PCs to refer to windows, but here we'll just get a mix of linux/bsd/windows in that category.

Unless you consider "other" to be non-Windows.

Ran Linux as my exclusive desktop for ~4 years, then switched to OSX ~2 years ago.
I ran linux (mostly slackware) on my laptops from 2001 until 2005 or so. Then I bought a Mac with the expectation to install linux on it. I decided to see what OS X was like for a few days and never got around to install linux (now on my 3rd Mac laptop).

The thing is, I have been thinking of switching back recently, but I really like being able to run Photoshop and Office natively.

Edit: one more thing, "netbook only" would be an interesting option.

PC, with Windows & Linux dual-boot.
PPC mac and Linux at home. Winders at work.
XP and Slackware. I mostly use XP, though.
At some point I ran 8 operating systems on 6 different processor architectures. Had to throw it all out, now I'm on XP and Slackware, on two different thinkpads (no desktop in my kingdom)
Didn't we have this poll just last week too? I'm certainly feeling a bit 'deja vu' :)
