Why aren't I rushing back to Windows on my desktop PC? It boils down to this: peace. Working in Linux seems quieter; I don't feel under attack, my programs are not trying to sell me something, and they don't try to do things for me that I don't want done. Computing in Linux sometimes requires more work, but it also imposes fewer annoyances. And so far, that's a trade-off I'm willing to make.

I myself dried a MS-Free diet, but i have to use dual-boot, i can't live without Dreamweaver and Photoshop!  ;)
