Preferred development OS (Desktop/Laptop).

Super VGA · 2012-11-14T16:33:15

Just today, while I was working on our apps, I realized how much I'd rather work on another platform than the one I was using. I came to think of, most of us must have some sort of bias. -Or a preference based on experience. I have, but I won't mention it right away, I'd rather see what you guys think. Note: This is not about target platform, but development platform. And it's strictly about the experience of using IDEs, file managers and other applications related to everyday development. Price and hardware is not in the picture. I'd like to apologize if this belongs in the lounge. It's pretty casual, -and might just be the most casual post I've ever posted. I'm just not sure about it.

I made two OS for my personal use. For desktop I made one pretty much indistinguishable from Windows 7, and for my netbook, I made another indistinguishable from Debian.

I also had to remake Eclipse and a JRE for each OS too, it was such a chore but such is the price for having a custom development environment.
