Why GNU/Linux Rocks

Well i bought the MeeNee laptop which came with just Ubuntu installed. I love it. Just backing up the hard-drives on my desktop PC so i can get rid of windows completely.

Congratulations! You're no longer a slave to a central entity, and at the mercy of their whims. If Ubuntu doesn't suit your needs, you can change it, or use something altogether different :^)

I only have good things to say about Linux. I've ran several distros on various hardware anywhere from netbooks with 1.0 GHz Intel Core Solos to my mad as desktop with an Intel i7 920. So far I've used, BackTrack, Ubuntu, Fedora, Knoppix, Tor, Gentoo, Yellow Dog and SuperGamer (comes with games and is optimised for gaming). I've noticed that with several applications that are GPU intensive such as games, Linux achieves higher framerates than Windows. In my experience I'll get anywhere from 10-15 fps more in World of Warcraft if I'm playing on my Sony VAIO SZ79 while running Linux (I've got a triple boot Linux, Windows, Mac OS X via Hackintosh system)
