Both Blink and I were talking about Linux last night, speak of the devil..
I ran SuSE 8.1 for two weeks, and as much as I enjoyed it, I hated it. Though it gave me that l337 feeling, especially when I showed it off at school, it took me 5 frustrating hours to figure out how to compile and run limewire. Heh, in fact, it was the only program i sucessfully installed. Mainly because the Yast filesystem package thingy was buggy in that distro, and wanted me to install its version of GAIM instead of one from sourceforge. They've probably already cleared that up with the latest SuSE release. I have a feeling I'll set up another linux box in the near future.
*edit*
Or I'll give the new SkyOS a whirl. That OS is pretty cool, and from what slashdot said, its been 99.9% developed by one guy.
