Vista for me. I've had less issues with Vista.. but I also have it on a different machine, so that might be why.

Also the XP on my old machine was a *cough* got it from some guy *cough* copy.

XP.

Vista has the looks, but only has brains on paper.

Neither Mac OS X rules. Why use a virus ridden copy when you can use the original GUI Microsoft copied.

The Big Mac hath spoken and ye shalt obey. hahaha..

You will always choose Mac over MS though let's face it. I can't say I've ever had a mac, so I'll have to take your word for it.

I don't know the question was which do you prefer and neither is an acceptable answer given they are both rubbish compared to OSX and the features it offers.

They have been set up by technicians who are use to using Windows. They have just set up the machines incorrectly. It use to happen were I worked.
