    I made the switch a few months ago. I'm enjoying it a lot. Right now I have Ubuntu (came preinstalled), but got to get up the nerve to install Slack or Arch someday :)

    the Ubuntu forums are great...get an answer right away...for example, I was messing around and the next morning couldn't boot my computer and they helped me solve the problem in 30 minutes.

    I ran it for about a week and hated it because it wasn't compatible with anything. Back to XP.

    I'm running BSD on my PC these days and only that. It's a little more of a pain than many Linux distros but the microkernel and memory paging makes it very stable, fast and allows a number of simultaneous processes to run quite quickly.
