A SuSE 8.2 with so many rpm packages replaced by updates compiled from source that it's slowly turning into Gentoo/LFS. I plan to move on to Debian sometime soon.

Where to start? At home, perhaps.

RedHat Linux 7, 8 and 9 on sundry x86 hardware.
Gentoo Linux on a PIII-450
Debian Linux on a AlphaStation 250 4/266
WinXP on a PIII-600
Win 2003-AS on a PIII-400
FreeBSD 4.9 on a PII-300
Mac OS 10.3.9 on a 400MHz Imac
Solaris 7 on an Ultra10
WinCE 2.11 on a HP Jornada 820

There are lots of other boxes which still wok but aren't powered up at the moment. Operating systems include True64 (on a disk for the Alpha, should I want to boot into that OS), Irix for my SGI Indy, Ultrix on DECstations, Win 9x, Win 3.1, CP/M ...

At work:

Solaris 9 on various boxes
Mac OS 10.3.9 on a 800MHz G4.

Don't sneer at the Jornada, by the way. It is by far my favourite laptop. It's small, lightweight and runs for 10 hours or so on a single battery charge. It has a built-in modem and I've added ethernet and CF memory to it. It has built-in web browser and office suite, to which I've added ssh and VNC for accessing remote machines and Pari/gp for number theoretical work.
