"Desktop Linux is almost soup. We only have a few items left on the short list. Will we do it? If history is an indicator, the answer is yes."Read this article at LXer. Read more for a short list of my personal needs before I could say "yes, I can switch to Linux or FreeBSD full time".

1) i know you're not a fan of KDE apps.. but you might wanna look at Kasablanca (an FTP client)... it's still in development, but I've found early versions to be both stable and relatively uncluttered interface-wise..... It reminds me of oldschool versions of CuteFTP... simple, but quite functional.
2) I use GNOME desktop, but I've found Kaffiene (w/ Xine back-end) integrates pretty nicely... especially when using FireFox in place of Epiphany.. I've had no troubles viewing online footage... Movie previews from quicktime, etc...
