Get the OS mug.
Operating system. Simply, a program that runs your computer. Examples of an operating system are CP/M, DOS, Windows, Mac OS, Linux, and Palm OS, though there are many more. One will oftentimes become overly attached to their OS, preaching it as though it were a religion and shunning all who use anything even slightly different.
