Don't get me wrong for saying this - whenever I want to web browse, or have the time to learn something new, or listen to music while typing a paper, or run my laptop in a really really lowpower mode, I use DSL. It's the fastest thing for any one of these tasks.
But, for example, I still have not found out why bittorent clients will run on this machine under windoze, and not Linux. It isn't even restricted to DSL; I have tried a number of other distro's with little success. Games are tricky too.
I spend far more time in DSL than windoze recently, and wouldn't be surprised if things remain that way. But I am too familiar with windoze and have uses for it still.....
A perfect example is my father, years ago. His sports car was a far superior vehicle than the minivan we had. However, even though the sports car is better in most respects, the minivan still did useful things.
I can tell you, in this case, DSL sure as hell wasn't the minivan........
