Poll: What is the primary operating system you use for developing Perl applications?
I already ran two quick polls about IDE usage in the Perl community.
Let me run a new one asking What is the primary operating system you use for developing Perl applications?. I'd appreciate if you invested 5 secs to answer it.
I blog about Perl.
I answered the poll assuming "work". This kinda depends. Does work/play matter? I mean, I use Ubuntu at work and deploy, test and tweak on Solaris. I use a Mac at home and deploy to Ubuntu.
Ubuntu and OpenBSD
I agree with meraxes...I use Linux RHEL at work, but Linux Ubuntu at home. But unlike meraxes, I voted for the one I use at home, since that's the one where I had a choice in the matter.
I agree that the question should be more fine tuned and separated for work/fun and develop/deploy but I am using this free poll service ...
Heck, asking where do you test would be also fun, especially if the number one answer was no test environment or something similar.
I hope the big Perl survey will handle this better and that your comments help a lot in forming the questions to that survey.
No OpenBSD on the poll.
Yeah, same boat here. Ubuntu at work, OS X at home (though I'm so miffed with Apple that I might ditch them for my next laptop).
Do you want to know which OS runs my development tools (windows vista)? Or which OS runs my development code (centos)?
yet another variable to check for...
There is no such distinction right now but that would actually be an interesting addition to the possibilities.
