With such new Computers such as Acer Aspire Revo and newer netbooks that are able to run Nvidia Ion graphics.. The future is here and its bright so maybe the list needs a update... Order needs to be reshuffled.. With release of Windows 7.... and smaller platforms then XBOX 360 and PS3... For testing purposes 1. CD/DVD-RW or a Live CD 2. Virtual Software 3. last option should be to partition hard drive Top 5 things to consider when switching OS's 1. Stability.... 2. Hardware Compatibility..... 3. Community support.... 4. Back ups / external hard drive 5. Software solutions... Emulators such as Virtual software / play on linux 6. Wireless solution and Network Connection 7. Media Centers only reason I added media centers is because of the power of the new Nvidia Ion gpu = 9400m gpu and is making things like XBOX 360 and PS3 in near future have to fight for gaming console machines and maybe much more with media centers like XBBS... Running full video and Games without choppy results and in consoles much smaller then video game systems... Only question that should remain with is do these systems over heat and will it take adding a cooling fan??? Only time will tell ,but there size is a big advantage..

I've also used Ubuntu and Mac OS X (one before leopard), both just once and not for a long time, I tried Ubuntu on my pc using wubi, and used Mac on a cousin's notebook. I loved both Ubuntu and Mac, and this patriotism feeling I have makes me hate windows xp, but I'm afraid of the software compability and not beeing able to get software that easy.

The free and easy customization allows me to make my computer work for me, not me work for it. I have worked with Vista, XP, 2000, ME (oh god that was bad), 98 and 95. ubuntu is my linux distro as it is the easiest for me. I have not uese the mac enough to give a strong opinion. But I have experienced a lot of the windows distros and still choose Ubuntu 8.04 Linux. The free and easy customization allows me to make my computer work for me, not me work for it.

I don't like MAC (I think it's just me) but every time I use one something has to go wrong =(. I tried Ubuntu for a while... liked it, good GUI, much like XP. I do enjoy my Windows and support it 100%. That said, Windows is my fav. Windows XP is my favorite, but I switched to Vista recently, and I like it =).
