This is just a straw poll. I'd be curious to know how many people are running a pure GNU/Linux environment - SUSE or otherwise. If your job requires Windows, and you don't own the business, don't include that. Please include:

6 Linux-only

1 Linux/windows dual-boot

Windows only used to play a legacy game occasionally, _never_ permitted to access a network. I also keep WinXP pro on my laptop, but I never use it. It is there only as a courtesy for my boss and others, should _they_ have an issue they need windows for while we are traveling.
<> Length of time you've been Windows-free
Except for that legacy game, 5 years. Also, at work I use nxclient on a windows host to login to my home network, so even at work, I can still use Linux for almost all tasks.
Thanks in advance for your input.
