Never look back! I've been on Windows since '95. I enjoyed it, learned to use and fix it. But I don't understand what it has grown into. I don't need all those files, processes, it's a huge mess.

So now Linux can do all I need, it's faster, leaner, infinitely customizable (not that I would have the time or patience for that).

There's a lot to learn about it, but I don't mind reading a wiki or forum.

Nice. I haven't used Windows as my main OS for several years now. I do boot into Windows once in a while to to test some things, but Linux has been my main driver for everything from gaming to productivity and I haven't looked back.

Yeah I've been without it for a month. Linux works fine, mostly.
