Yeah! I can't even remember how many times I've had to clean up things on my PC: countless hours spent to identify problems and such: I still use Windows but just for those apps (such as Video Editing and games) for which there are no suitable counterparts on other platforms. For the rest, Emails, INTERNET, Office work and productivity I just keep using my (several) LINUX distros. One of those is ELIVE (it uses Enlightement as Window Manager) and it is sooooo STABLE that on their site there's a report of one user not having rebooted its system for over a year. Can you imagine any XP system running for such a long time without slow-downs in performance?
P.S. I haven't re-installed any of my Linux system for over two years. They just keep going fine.
Windows IS a monopoly!
