Re: Wanting a reason to switch to Linux
I personally think that Linux tends to have a better workflow than Windows desktops - not just the big, flashy UI stuff, but the little details, like being able to scroll a document with the mouse without selecting that window or being able to copy and paste without using the keyboard, stuff that applies to any Linux UI. But that's little stuff. If you're in a discipline where you'll need Windows programs - and that's most disciplines - it's hard to commit to Linux full-time, and dual-booting and switching between installs is going to be more of a burden to your workflow than will be offset by anything that Linux gives you. That said, it's fun to play with, and tinkering with the bits inside is a good puzzle for an engineer, I think. = )
