occasionally i wonder whether trying out on a desktop machine might be a good idea, but have no idea what's the best way, what's the best distro etc.
anyone had any experience of this?
oh, and poll added, for laffs

Been using Linux for eight or nine years now. Slackware and Redhat in the past, Debian (testing) since 2004.

Windows, just installed Ubuntu Linux, Mac OS X (not really, I just pretend to and dabble around in it so that I can say I know a thing or two about Mac)
On Linux, I tried a pretty large range of distros a few years back but couldn't be really be bothered into tracing down all the Linux drivers etc. Just wasn't the right time for me. So far, I've found Ubuntu to be fairly user friendly. Installation was a snap. Automatrix pretty much streamlined the installation for the video card drivers and a few other useful apps.

Nor 'triple or more boot' choices.
Currently though, Vista RC2 and XP home sp2.

Windows on my desktops, mostly for gaming.
But I just installed Ubuntu on my lappy.
