I'm going to give Linux another shot. Suggestions?

Also, use whatever OS is best for what you do. One is not necessarily better than the other...they're just different. They all have their place and jobs they're best suited for.

I will say that Ubuntu is worlds ahead of the version of SuSE I ran years ago. I ran it with Windows 98 as a dual boot machine. Then when 2000 came along I couldn't get it to recognize NTFS (I think this was the issue - damn it, I'm getting old), so I had to use the NT boot loader. But I had to mount the floppy drive or CD-Rom all the time. It hated my Panasonic LS-120 drive for some reason. It was a huge PITA, so I quit using it.

I don't know that I will ever be able to get away from Windows completely, and I'm fine with that.
