Linux "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".

>Please tell me you have a router. ;)

I do. A LinkSys one. I used to route all that through a FreeBSD box, running on an AMD K6 400 Mhz, 64 MB RAM, 1.7 GB drive. Then, the linksys router came along (with wi-fi support along with plain ethernet) and so DHCP ruled the house since then.
However, there's not an easy way to do this for Bluetooth devices too (it's doable using a linux/bsd as a server and a bluetooth Class 1 dongle, but it's lots of cli work) ;)
