Apparently, I thought you were a MAC guy? 
Each has it's strengths. For more people, more of the time, I think they should swallow the dang Software cost hit and get something that's a hair more intuitive to use (Mac).
For someone who works on computers all day, the Linux box is a lean, clean, machine. I also have Exceed running on the PC to log-in to the Linux box.
As much as it pains me, Windows delivers most of what people look for most of the time at prices that work for the Enterprise. Moreover, the company I work for relies on Windows business (but more Oracle than anything else).
That said, I'm either switching the Linux box to Ubuntu, or OSX.

Apparently Mikey though my praises of Apple made me a Mac guy. Apparently, I have a PC at work, Linux box at work, and a 12" PowerBook at home.
