Has Ubuntu Replaced Windows on Your Box?

I've been using Linux at home virtually 100% of the time for probably 
three years now and at work for almost two years. Earlier this year, when 
I got a new Dell laptop, I immediately removed the "Designed for Microsoft 
Windows XP" sticker and pasted it on my trash can. I then took the new, 
shrink-wrapped OEM Windows XP install disk to my network admin guy and 
asked him to give it to someone less fortunate than I. ;-) This machine 
has never seen a setup version of Windows on it as I wiped the drive the 
day I got it. 

I switched several months ago from SuSE to Ubuntu (Hoary) when apps. that 
I liked using, like Scribus for example, virtually disappeared from the 
distro. I also liked Ubuntu's philosophy so I'll be staying with them for 
some time to come.
