Linux, especially Gentoo (which I also prefer) is an amazing system if you want to learn a lot about how your computer works. I heard ATI is supposed to be releasing a much-updated driver for its video, and also considering making it open source.
But, for all I may want to, i can't get rid of Windows. Linux is great if you don't mind doing lots of research trying to get stuff to work. But when you just need it to plain work now...I've found it very difficult, much like left-handed people must find a right-handed world.

The guys on the Gentoo forum found a solution though - they took their ASUS boards back and purchased Linux compatible versions.

I don't understand this...Asus does provide Linux drivers for their motherboards? All my Gentoo systems have been based on Asus motherboards? Why would the Gentoo people not like Asus?
