I tried it out of frustration after dealing with Windows 98 :-P
A lot of Linux just works for me, the only problems I have these days
are generally problems of configuration. The whole codec matter is a
headache, but things like FLAC have given me hope.

A friend of mine showed me his Debian system and I was impressed how
easily he maintained it. That was the point I ended up gravitating
towards Debian, and Debian derivatives.
For me, Linux and the programs it come with (GNU) have to be complex
enough to be interesting and simple enough to use. Good design should
reduce the difficulty of the complex.
Why did you try it out?
What works for you? What can you see as a hindrance?
