Exactly. For me, I've been using other flavours of Linux for a few years... but never as a work station...
Compatibility was always the big reason for Windows XP etc.... I think I'm gonna take the plunge for my work computer... which will be mostly coding and research (or googling). I'll keep my Windows based laptop for my accounting software. But I must say... I'm so interested in those MacBooks.... ;-) Vista might also be a plus for Apple.
