The first beige-box PC I owned, I bought with the express intention of declining the Windows license, wiping it, and installing Linux (Slackware, back in the day). I fought with weird window managers and device drivers for a few years, then tossed it all when Mac OS X came out. Today, Terminal.app is still the killer app on Mac for me. I have yet to see a Linux distro that can compete.
