Office use - Windows (if you are into more use of Office suite)
Techie use - Any Linux distro would do, I prefer Ubuntu
Gaming - Windows or Ubuntu + Wine or Ubuntu + Cedega is as good (if not better than Windows). A properly configged Wine on Ubuntu has been known to give better performance than Windows on the same h/w.
Enterprise side - FC distro, CentOS
