I've recently moved my desktop back to Windows 2000. For what I need to do
at home (games, photoshop, dreamweaver) its better. I still run linux
servers and all linux machines at work, but after months of trying I really
couldnt get the hang of Gimp.

Tried VMWare and win4lin (very nice) but they didn't give me the speed I
needed. And cygwin under 2k didnt suit my needs either. So the final
solution is a linux box in the corner with Linux Terminal Server Project (
www.ltsp.org ) so I can remotely boot linux from any machine in the house.
Plus its setup so I get the same login dialog via remote boot, vnc or a
remote X query - meaning other people using it can connect however they want
and still get the same feel.

Give me 6 months and I'll probably be back to a Linux desktop though :)
