yeah, i bet it's really "nice".
i use slack 9.0 and ocassionally red hat 8.0 although i will be installing peanut linux 9.4 and FreeBSD 4.7 again pretty soon and linux from scratch 4.0 too.
Oh yes, still got windows ME o the first 1.5 gig or so for moments when it comes in handy (like now my girlfriend wants to practice using excel for a job interview).
