Windows or Ubuntu

[thanos]

I have switched to Ubuntu 7.10, a few months ago.

I wanted to learn a little about linux, so I installed on a second PC.  I have not even turned on my windows machine since.

I should really get around to installing on my best hardware, AM2, 2.6 Ghz, 2Gb DDR 800, ATI 3850...

My Ubuntu box, 2.0 Ghz, 2Gb DDR 400, NVIDIA 7600GS...

I don't really play any video games anymore, so I don't feel I am missing anything.

You may find your ATI graphics card not as easy to get working as your nvidia.

Hmmm...

Should I consider a different distro?  Will I have trouble in with an ATI card in general?

The desktop effects, though unnecessary, are very slick.

Anybody else have any suggestions, or comments?
