I'll chime in again for Ubuntu. I tried 4 distros on my laptop
when I got it and found Ubuntu to be the most complete for me in
terms of letting me streamline things a bit and having a nice
large package selection without compiling everything from
scratch. I'd like to try Suse 10 on the laptop as well just to
see how hardware support is. Personally, I think Ubuntu rivals
Gentoo in overall package selection. Probably *the* Debian based
distro to go with of the ones out there.
If/when I wipe my main desktop or fileserver I may take them
down the Ubuntu route.
As for Windows games, Cedega is your best bet if you desire a
certain degree of simplicity for installing games without native
linux support.
That be it,
Mr O.
