Here is a fun little quiz:

Which OS Are You?

I took this quiz and the result was surprisingly accurate. (at least the insane part)


I would love to know which OS you are!

So I took it again, this time with the answers that more suited the deep dark places in my soul. You know, the secret me I don't let out often. Here are the results:

You are Red Hat Linux. You're tops among your peers, but still get no respect from them. It's all right with you. You have your sights set higher.
Which OS are You?
Multiplicity - Control multiple PCs using one keyboard and mouse

You are OS X. You tend to be fashionable and clever despite being a bit transparent. Now that you've reached some stability you're expecting greater popularity.
Which OS are You?

Yeah, that's me - clever and superficial.

You are Windows 95. You look better than your older brother, but your communication skills are still lacking. You start well, but often zone out.
Which OS are You?
Older Brother? Nope, I'm the older brother. Poor communication? Check. Start well, zone out? All the time...

Blech. The only part I can agree with is: "start well, but often zone out." (Well, I am good looking....)

But otherwise, phooey! I'm Apple to the core, baby!

Lousy, inaccurate quiz, imho.

I dont have the picture, but I was HP-UX. That sounds about right. Unfortunately, only one person really understands me. Oh well, thats one more than some people, right?

Okay, I just looked at the full list of possible options people can be. (The quiz needed to include older Macintosh systems, like it did with WIndows. The authors have probably never used any, though.) http://www.bbspot.com/News/2003/01/os_quiz_all.html

Of them, I'd say I'm either Apple DOS 3.1 or Amiga OS.

So there.

BlueDev, your dichotomous results were interesting. Thanks for showing your dark-side OS.

TasT, NJForever and BlueDev seem to have a lot in common.

Casto-you are truly unique.

Danny, yours fits you perfectly except for the older brother thing.

Poor Gene, I am sorry yours was phooey. You are in good company with Danny, though.

Dr. Guy, you used that?!?

Go ahead and laugh!  And tell me how your  kids are talking about the dinosaurs that did not have cable and iPods when they were growing up! 

Your time is coming!  Tell them to contact me so I can tell them stories!  hehehehee (demonic laugh there!)

I know it is, trust me. That is why I will take full advantage of my current position while I still can.

You know I greatly respect and admire you, Dr.

Yea, but I got to get in a demonic laugh every now and then!

You think he's prehistoric, I have an emulator laying around here somewhere that uses Apple DOS! I even still use my Commodore 64.

(Okay, I admit it... I still have every computer and gaming system I ever owned and they all still work. Plus I have emulators for them on my Mac. Am I stuck in the past, a pack rat, or just sentimental? Poll to follow. )

AppleDOS isn't that old. I'm only 21 and I can still remember having an old Apple 2c when I was a kid. But then again my parents were very much against the whole 'teknologee' vibe.

I got "You are Slackware Linux. You are the brightest among your peers, but are often mistaken as insane. Your elegant solutions to problems often take a little longer, but require much less effort to complete." It actually is straight up in regards to my disposition at work. hehehe.

Gene, I think it is called nostalgia.

Actually, the original came out in 1978.  But you could still find some Apple IIe's in the schools I worked in in the mid 90s, so it had a lot of staying power.  You couild not KILL those old Apples or IBMs!
