Re:how many people actually _like_ windows? (Score 1)

One of my most prominent problems with switching to a different OS (from Windows I mean) is the compatability. I am a gamer at heart, and most are made for Windows, but I just get so pissed off at the OS sometimes that I really can't use it for anything else. I (partially) solved this problem by just making a partition on my 160 GB harddrive and installing SuSe on the partition. My computer was too mutch of a beast to just have winders running on it, so now I can actually do "professional" type stuff on it.

I do agree with the familiarity issue though. I've been using windows since I was three years old, so switching to Linux has been a little confusing, but since getting used to it, I really see why so many people preffer it to Microsoft stuff. The installing part though, I still can't get over that... :-) -Davito
