Great article. I'm not so sure about Linux being boring though. I am a 20 year old graphic designer and after years of using Windows decided to try Linux on a laptop i was given.
20 mins after installing Ubuntu that was it...i was fully converted from Windows to Linux.
Even now after some time using Linux I'm still constantly blown away by the things i can do with it. I swapped from the default Ubuntu windows manager to Enlightenment and that just made a great OS even better.
Installing software still puzzles me a little bit if i have to go down the compile, make install, etc route but thanks to the great synaptic package manager and the sudo apt-get commands its rare that i have to do that.
The selection of free software is amazing as well.
For you guys Linux may have become boring if reliable but for me, its like a dream come true.
So at least thats one more Linux convert, and i plan to convert others.
