I'm a UNIX Systems Manager who "manages" HP-UX and Linux machines (both desktops and servers) at work. I also have an Athlon 64 PC at home that quad boots into Windows XP Pro [strictly for games, it's hopeless for anything else] and three versions of Linux (Fedora Core 3 and 4 plus SuSE 9.3 Pro). I have two older PCs at home as well (Duron with XP Pro, Red Hat Linux 9 and Fedora Core 2 and a P4 with XP Pro and Fedora Core 2), wirelessly networked to a wireless ADSL router plus a Zaurus PDA (running OpenZaurus of course) with a wireless LAN card. Now if only we could get more than the dozen users I've "persuaded" so far to switch from Windows to Linux desktops at work...
