I've had a partition set aside for installing XP on since I got this box back in April, but I'm yet to find a reason to actually go and do it. I'm not much of a gamer so don't miss them at all.

I have XP running in VMware just for Office 07, Office 08 has too many features missing for a lot of my uses.
And after using Mac for 8ish months I hate going back on the windows box at home which used to be my main machine: I'm the troubleshooter and it just seems to always have something go wrong with it. I'll end up replacing it with an iMac.

Well I have my macbook for everything else, and my Windows comp for Flight Simulator, so I havnt totally made the switch..But, I am totally used to only having Leopard on my Mac. Hell, It would be on my PC if it could run Flight Sim.
I love Leopard, so simple and quick!

No more Windows for me since I got my Mac either.
However, I still have to use it at work and uni because they all run Windows-based networks  For e-tax I borrow my sisters Windows machine... |

I haven't had a (useable) windows machine since 2003 and my MacBook is staying windows free.
I go to the library each year to use e-tax.
Cheers,
Andrew

Primary machine is the Mac, but I still need the Windows box for gaming and MS Office 2007. It also gets used as the primary photoshop machine because Adobe pretty much hates Apple.

If you're a web developer (I am) then you absolutely must have access to the PC platform to test websites on. Mistaken it or not, over 90% of the world views websites on IE on a PC.
At work I've got an intel iMac, but have Parallels with XP installed, and the infamous IE v6 (breaker of CSS code in websites!) In fact it's great that I can do this, rather than having to go to another PC, fire it up and check sites on it ... |

Never installed Windows. Don't need it or want to pay for a copy of it.

Mac all the time except for using windows box at work to use a couple of specialist engineering programs and that is an ad-hoc basis when to analyse something.

I used Windows because it was required for an IT course that I am doing.
I ended up deleting the partition because it was a waste of space and decided to switch to CrossOver.

To tell the truth, I've stopped using Windows years before I started using Macs.
Cheers
