I admit that I'm a geek. I use Linux. I use Solaris. I use FreeBSD. At times, I use Windows. And without a doubt, I download and try almost every Linux distribution when they come out. Over the last few years, I've tried all of the RedHat/Fedora releases, 2 different Lindows/Linspire releases, Mandrake, Gentoo, Xandros, Suse, Ubuntu, and the list goes on.

O.K. What stops you from using OpenOffice, 7-Zip, AVG or Avast antivirus, SmartFTP, Mozilla or FireFox, don't remember names for cd-rw progs, though there's built in cd writing capabilities in xp?
And if you need command line shell (good thing, I agree) - just google for msh / monad - you'll be amazed (I know what I'm talking about as I'm beta-tester and it's amazing, even compared to bash/zsh/csh, which I've used in the past and definately love).
