After being betrayed by Linux yet again regarding drivers, I've decided to call it a day. FreeNAS (FreeBSD) came through and saved the day, but not after having suffered a nasty bug that damaged hundreds of my files, and wasted weeks of my time. I would've kept FreeNAS going as I think it's more stable than Linux, but my server simply consumes too much electricity. Basically, I wasn't willing to abandon my hardware, and Linux *was* working, and then a bug was silently introduced. It's been months and the bug has not been fixed. FreeBSD did not contain this bug and my hardware worked flawlessly.
I always tried to only upgrade to stable versions of Linux, and even then I suffered that unacceptable bug that caused me data loss. Release management failure is what I attribute that bug to. I'm sure I'll be running Linux in the future, but I'll be weary of upgrading if things are working. Also, I've been a long time user of OpenBSD and FreeBSD and really enjoy their level of quality. I think in some Distros of Linux, there are too many cooks in the kitchen and its getting hard to keep of everything they push out.
I simply went out and bought an ASRock ION 330 and installed Windows 7 on it. In 6 months I'll upgrade the 2.5" HD from 320GB to 1TB, and I already have a USB 1TB HD mirroring my data.
After using Windows 7 for a week, I really think Windows got it right. So for the desktop, Apple and Windows still have the edge. If you are interested in a file server, I highly recommend FreeNAS, which I had installed on a 128MB USB key.
Posted by boredottawa at September 7, 2009 02:34 PMI gave up on linux many moons ago. I use a mac now and will ever return to Windows or Linux on desktop.
I have a NAS (DNS-323). Really nice machine. Yes, it runs Linux. But I only have to deal with web interfaces and there are just a few programs running on it anyway. I can handle it.

Who knows what Google will do with their OS. If it's good and does things better, I'll switch, but I somehow think they're not going the multimedia route. So video/audio will still belong to Windows and Macs.
