I've got to use XP at work, but now I've only got Linux at home.
Used to have Win2000 (which wasn't bad, except no way to play Worms on it), then they released XP and something snapped - no way I'm going to pay for an OS that takes away my control over MY box.
First I tried a dual boot just in case - worked like a charm - then realised I never booted Windows. My next setup was carefully designed to be Linux-friendly, and I never even thought of reinstalling any flavor of M$ on it.
Once you've tasted choice and freedom, who'd want to go back?
