How many of you use different OS at home and work?

I have a Mac but I use IE at work and every time I get home it's a sigh of relief-no more viruses,pop-ups or gray areas! What about you,do you find the transition significant or you switch easily?

At work I have to use Windows XP or Windows 98. Its the only available operating system at my office. But at home I used Linux as my main operating system unless I'm in the mood for gaming. I will boot my Windows XP at home.

I use XP and Vista at home, Unix(Solaris), Linux(Fedora) and MAC in college....I have to use live CDs of Linux(Knoppix,ubuntu) some times.

Work is usually done with windows. At home, I still use windows, but sometimes I use linux. Occasionaly, I use freebsd, or minix, or go really old school and tinker with dos,....just out of.......exuberance.

I find Macs to be more productive and creative even though I don't make movies or music,anything of the kind:( DOS reminds me of high school computer classes(God,I hated those!) and old-school games! :)
