I don't, but i have a question, is it good? I've been thinking about Linux for a while now, so is it easy to use and better then any other OS?

Well the truth is it is a really cool OS.
Click here for the website. They have thousands of apps. Anywhere from games to office and in between. Not to mention it is virus-free.

I used it for a while. Ditched it when I couldn't run my games whatsoever for whatever reason.

UNIX based systems are nearly impossible to get a virus on. Compared to Windows, Linux is a maximum security prison for files. Nothing gets in or out without permission, nothing gets transferred, executed, or deleted without your knowledge. That statement could apply to Mac, but not Linux.

I agree, it is really hard for viruses to infect UNIX. They keep more eyeballs on the code. Some have been developed, but they don't do anything.

I recently switched from IE to Firefox and it was a miracle! My pc stopped stalling on me! (Vista, what else...)

So, switching again seems unnecessary to me...

Just out of curiosity... is it really good? I mean, better than FF or one of the other big names? =)
