Will you ever go back to M$ OS?
adiment:
Yes. Fuck Yes.
Gaming...
(don't give me that 'emulating' bullshit)

Why write native apps if you can just emulate? Why emulate when you can run natively? I'd rather just use a mac.

Best reason to not use Windows?

Nope, I will not switch back, at least not on my home PC. Actually I still have WXP as a secondary OS - which used to be the only OS on this computer. I occasionally play games and nearly all of my hard disk space is formatted into NTFS. There's just too much data to convert them to something else without a lot of work.
I'm planning not to ever "upgrade" to Hasta la Vista or even get any PC that comes with Windows. I'll probably have problems, Linux isn't perfect. But if I can get things done as well as or at least almost as well as with Windows, I'm happy. Microsoft's business methods sicken me and I don't want to support them in any way. Call me a rebel, idealist, freak, whatever. To some point, I might agree. ;)
Moreover, Linux and other free software is inevitably going to get better because the community only cares about improving the software. I can't say I think the same about Windows. MS only cares about money so they don't have to make it any better as long as the masses still buy it because there are new cool graphical effects that utilize better (ie. spend all) the processing power of the brand new PC they bought.
I think using Linux eventually pays off. Hell, it already does. Now that I have learned to set everything up properly, it's much more pleasant to use. I feel I'm in control for once.
