Convince me to upgrade from XP to Ubuntu

[TBSN]

I just switched my laptop to Ubuntu (x64) and I am in love with it. I still have my desktop PC on XP, so Ubuntu isn't really a "replacement" for me, but honestly all I use the XP machine for is gaming and the internet. Ubuntu has so far flawlessly taken over all my other tasks with OpenOffice, email and music. I still have to test my iPod with Songbird though.

I am still trying to learn how to do things the Linux way (i.e. installing with repositories, where the hell is my C: drive and program files, etc) but I like it so much better.

Unfortunately, nothing will replace Windows for hardcore gaming. I was thinking of dual booting with Ubuntu on my desktop too, but I don't know about hardware support, so I'll have to research that.

Oh yeah the uo client alone works fine, but not Razor which is .net. Razor is needed to reverse the game encryption (and has all hot keys, macros etc). Though after testing UO in vmware I'm not too worried. the latest vmware runs very well even for games.
