Damn... and I thought I abused the '.....' notation.
Linux makes a great workstation, depending on the tools you need to use. I like having a fully functional system out of the box, that comes with applications to do just about anything I need to do. Not having to hunt down some shareware 3rd party app every time I need to take care of some trivial task saves so much time for me, it more than makes up for any other time spent tweaking settings (although theres not much you have to do these days anyhow, unless you have some poorly supported hardware).
To each his own though...
