I mostly use Windows 7 just to make sure its updated so that when some lame company forces me to use Internet Explorer I'm "safe" #

Oh yeah…I also run Windows 7 to test Anti Malware software that only runs on Windows. Never had an infection on Ubuntu #

Tweeting from my Droid Incredible instead of Windows 7 #

Tweeting from Gwibber on Ubuntu Lucid instead of Windows 7 and yes that was my idea. #
