Just curious. How many here use desktop Linux on a regular basis?
Doesn't need to be your primary platform, but use it enough to consider
yourself a "user".

+1

Makes an *excellent* Windows recovery machine; recovering hard drive
data, removing virii, trojans, malware.

Wouldn't be without it.

Currently running Ubuntu 10.04 beta 1.

Don't use Linux as a general desktop machine often though.
