At the moment I have got it how I want it, I like the feature in gutsy if you dont have the required codecs it will ask you if it should fetch them, im using it more than me xp as I only do general stuff like surf and listen to music.
The plus side for me is the no virus issue

No. I use my new Vista one now. Linux is fine if you don't want ot do anything too esoteric, like programming or databse stuff, but as I do a lot of that I need Windows. It's a bugger but there it is.

Yeah, as I say it's annoying. I will say though that Linux is pretty good now and erfectly adequate for most people's use. It should be more popular seeing as it is free.
