In precentages, how much of your computing life is Microsoft products?

I have the same across 4 different platforms - OSX, Android, iOS and Win8 :D

good stuff ! for me since im always typing and editing and reading and having office 365 on my surface and windows 8 desktop and editing little stuff on my phone it works :cool:
 
A lot more than most people will believe. If I post anything positive about another MOBILE platform, or focus a real lacking of wp's abilities, I'm labeled zee enemy.... But I use and enjoy a lot of Microsoft products daily:

Windows xp disk images (fantastically fast and uncluttered)
A few GB of server space which is surprisingly unobtrusive
Some old photo stitching tools that are fantastic
Some Bluetooth keyboard and mice
A few (excellent!)GB of their mapping services a week.
A few GB of their software services a week
And then there are the required office products away from home that are annoyingly cumbersome

But the things I use most are dead technologies. They will not be updated, or upgraded, and when they fail, will be replaced with similar equipment out of personal preference, or not replaced at all. The current tend of over complicating and limiting user source actions does not appeal to me.
 
probably 90% for me

Windows 8.1 Desktop
Surface Pro 2
Nokia Lumia 1020 (primary)
outlook
office 2013
IE11
Xbox 360

other:
Nexus 7
Nexus 5 (work issued phone)
iPhone 5C
 
I would guess 95%.

Lumia 928
Surface RT
HP Laptop
Custom made desktop and HTPC (Windows Media Center)

Only deviations from this are:
Kindle Fire (Mostly the kids use this but I do play Scrubway Surfers)
Kinde 3 ereader
An old laptop my mother in law gave me that I put Joli OS on to play with.
 
4 Windows PCs (including 1 desktop at work, 1 desktop at home, 2 laptops)
1 WP
1 android phone
1 android tablet

72% Microsoft
28% Android
 
I'll probably say 99% since I have Linux installed on my old Laptop right now. All PCs at home are Windows and I have a WP.
 
For me 95% Windows 7, 5% OpenSUSE. At home, 100% Slackware although that will be going down because I'm going to try to develop some WP8 apps on my spare time.
 
I got a WP, Windows 8.1 desktop, and waiting for my Surface Pro 2.

Lumia 920
Surface 2
Xbox One
Outlook for mail, contacts, calendars etc
Skydrive
Xbox Music

But... Still use my MacBook Pro for general day to day bits, just can't get used to Windows 8.1 on a laptop despite loving it on the Surface.
 
Windows 7 desktop

Lumia 520 Windows Phone 8

Outlook.com. Email

SkyDrive for moving files from phone to desktop

However, my laptop is a Chromebook as I wanted something inexpensive and only needed it for web access and typing articles on my site. My site is on Blogger, which is part of Google, so it works well for that.

I am rather microsoftcentric right now. My two pcs are running Windows. 8 on my laptop, 7 on the desktop. My home storage server is powered by windows home server. I also have an Ubuntu powered webserver here, and prefer Linux for this type of application.

For office productivity software, there is no substitute for MS office. Google office or the open source office packages fall far short for me.

My phone is a Lumia, and my cloud storage choice is SkyDrive. I use bing most often for search, but Google sometimes as well.

I use Xbox music, but I also pick up music from amazon.
 
The only MS product I use is my L920 (I also have a HTC 8X as a back up). I've held of upgrading my iPad Mini to the Retina version because I want a similar size Windows 8 tablet instead, currently nothing available but I will wait for that Nokia 8 inch that there are rumours about. My Mac Mini/Apple TV would be hard to replace with a MScentric setup.
