i guess i can share some experience....

Let's see what the average joe (aj) will say in response.

1. You do not need to reboot frequently.....

But I don't mind rebooting frequently. I usually shut down my system after checking my mail. That's like 4-5 times a day.

2. While using Xwindow you get 4 Desktops whereas in

windows you get only one.

Uh, ok. Interesting.

3. Free Support from mailing lists.

What's a mailing list? :-/

4. You get to know more about your hardware....

I am not quite interested in knowing more about my hardware. I have better things to do. Really.

5. Better Internet Connectivity....

Hmmm. Meaning?

6. Better Hardware Detection with Redhat 7.1 (my

experience)

Oh no, I am fine. My vendor does all the installation for me, so I don't have to bother with things like "hardware detection".

7. Better Sound Quality if the Sound Card is

supported.

I hope my sound card is supported by Linux. If it's not, I'm not even touching Linux.
