Just a short list in no particular order (everyone’s got ‘em, figured I should as well). Simply trying to share my joy:

• No reboots
• So far, every peripheral I’ve installed has been a driverless installation
• Multitasking actually works
• Integrated FTP/SSH/Samba/whathaveyou within the file browser
• Wide variety of applications to choose from. All free.
• Development tools under an OS for which they were originally written
• I can mirror our servers if I need to
• I can use “hacker tools” if I need to figure out a problem (nmap, verbose CLI debugging, etc)
• Huge, decentralized support base on the internet
• Amarok is the best music player I’ve ever used
• Gvim for the win
• If I really need to, I can still run PC IE *shudder*
• Some malicious site tried to infect me with something the other day. I laughed and took a screenshot.
• Beryl graphics fun
• I don’t feel as if I’m sucking some corporation’s dick every time I use my computer

It’s been six months since I switch to Linux and I can honestly say that I haven’t been happier with my computing experience. Hooray.
