I cut my teeth on HP-UX. I've ran linux on my laptops for about 7 years. My wife refuses to switch (yet). My kids run Fedora, all of their old 'jump start' games don't run correctly on my wifes XP box, so they run them via wine on their fedora box. Yeah there were a few issues due to me not locking down their machine tight enough. The 2 year old managed to remove the menus, and generally rearranged the desktop, but my 7 year old daughter fixed it for him...
