Except the fact that no good games or software runs on Linux

Linux is like a geek's OS. I've used it, but only because I could hehe... there'd be no real benefit for me - all the games I play only run on Windows, a few on macs. And the software I use, it's all windows based, whether that's good or bad

First off it's not surprising that Linux out performs Vista....Thats not really news

Games yes your right but, there are plenty of way cool apps that run on Linux some that don't even run on windows. Other than games the biggest thing I hear is MS Office. Well Open Office works fairly well and if you don't like that you can allways get crossover office. It allows you to install MS Office and run it on Linux. My fav thing about crossover office is when your installing office and you have to reboot normally in Windows there's this little tab that says...simulate a windows reboot....Pretty funny
