What kind of Linux user are you?

Grrrrr: Don't be an elitist; there's nothing wrong with MS and proprietary.

I've been using Linux for 8 years and I've never condoned this M$ ******** and all that crap, people need to be realistic and get to terms with what people in the "real world" use. I switched back to Windows just 2 days ago for example because of Visual Studio and some other applications which just aren't available.

I like Linux, but there's a time for work, and since I'm not a Linux admin I need to be running Windows and I don't care because they're equally good Operating Systems for different reasons.

Stuck because I need a couple of specialist applications for work. Not a chance that they will run properly in wine.

I have said, "My next machine will be linux only" and it hasn't happened, currently dual boot with Win XP although I wish it was Win2K Pro. Some software I like doesn't work on this machine under XP but worked with W2KPro. Some things are not available or work requires Windows. I am to the point I don't like booting the Win side of the machine.

I voted other because I have to use Windows for business use, both for the software, that the instrumentation that I work with, uses and the accounting software that my accountant requires. Equally most documentation has to supplied in MS Office formats but home useage is Ubuntu based, and the Home server is equally Ubuntu based.
