Actually, considering my usage patterns, I'm seriously considering switching to some Linux.  Haven't played any modern game in ages and rarely do any video processing these days.

go with debian or slackware

lol, i tried ubuntu 9.10, but the drivers didnt work. so then i went to debian. of a distro.
if your super interested in learning the UNIX kernel, go with slackware.
if you want ease of use, go with ubuntu
if your like me, and want a bit of a challenge, while still being able to use most of everything, go with debian. (my new favorite)
