It depends on what you need. If you need GNOME/KDE or stability or good performance then GNU is not ready for you yet. As for web and multimedia we don't have any sound support and we still don't have a ported major browser (Mozilla, Galeon, etc) -- Robert Millan "[..] but the delight and pride of Aule is in the deed of making, and in the thing made, and neither in possession nor in his own mastery; wherefore he gives and hoards not, and is free from care, passing ever on to some new work." -- J.R.R.T, Ainulindale (Silmarillion)
