It's that time again, folks. "I realize the title might mislead you to believe that I've been trapped in a dank, dark underground dungeon for a year. In reality, though, I have been without Microsoft Windows for over a year. On November 1 of last year I blew away my old Windows 98/SUSE Linux 8.0 Professional dual-boot installation, and loaded SUSE Linux 9.2 Professional, by itself, on my box. While I know others have been Windows-free for much longer than a year, others simply cannot imagine doing without it. Here's my experience." Be gentle.

I have been using Linux since 1993, when I downloaded my first set of slackware disks. I have tried almost every distro under the sun, but I always kept a copy of Windows on my main machine. It was not until Mandrake 10.0 was released that I actually removed Windows for good.
There is always articles as to why Linux is not ready for the desktop, well... it is more than ready for mine.
Are you sure it is not ready for yours?
