with KDE 3.5. I also boot Windows XP Pro (heavly moded to make "Decent")
and Mac OSX 10.5.2 (yes, on my PC).

I love games. Unfortunatly DirectX for Linux is not perfected yet and the
games that *work* are not always playable, thus Windows get the big drive.
Currently my favorite games include:
-Team Fortress 2 (steam)
-Counter-Strike: Souce (steam)
-AudioSurf (steam)
-Evil Genius
-Portal (steam)
-Half-Life 2 +ep 1/2 (steam)
-Quake 4 (OpenGL under Linux :D)
-Total War games
-Call of Duty Games
