Yes.
I've been using Linux for ages 'secondary' - mostly on servers, in
April 2004 I bit the bullet and ditched windows from my desktop and
installed Debian, later that year I found Ubuntu and it's more recent
versions of certain things (namely Gnome) and installed it.
In March of '05 I got a new laptop and installed Ubuntu immediately
without hesitation.
Mind you, I still have windows "available" on a secondary box, one
that is turned on one, maybe two days a month for little things since
I still provide some sort of tech support to family, etc. on windows.
But, for personal everyday use, 100% Linux.
