Are you a Windows user?

jakoblodwick:

It seems like most Tumblr users are Mac people. But there must be some PC/Windows Tumblrs out there. If you are a Windows user, can you explain why in a reblog?

___________

I’m a Mac user at home and a Windows user at work. The business where I work is a Windows shop, we use MS SQL Server 2005 as our db and ASP.NET/classic ASP for our websites, as well as having a custom software app written in VB6. So at work I develop with all MS products.  When I do freelance, however, I try to stick to PHP and open source stuff on my Mac(s).  I do however find myself firing up VMWare and XP on my Mac Pro more often than I’d like.
