I run Ubuntu on occasion, but not regularly for obvious gaming-related reasons. Honestly, if I wasn't so into gaming (and so enthused with inking in OneNote, for which Xournal and similar apps don't quite do it for me), I'd probably just ditch Windows and use Linux all the time.
Yeah I put ubuntu as the os for our living room computer. Mainly because someone would download something and get a virus. It would get a virus within a few days. I got tired of having viruses so I put ubuntu on there. Never had to do something ubuntu couldnt do.
[QUOTE="NamelessPlayer"]I run Ubuntu on occasion, but not regularly for obvious gaming-related reasons. Honestly, if I wasn't so into gaming (and so enthused with inking in OneNote, for which Xournal and similar apps don't quite do it for me), I'd probably just ditch Windows and use Linux all the time. I have to agree with you 100%. Even though I have managed some decent gaming on Linux the support simply isn't there yet to feed one of my big requirements for my PC: Gaming.
I like to play around with Ubuntu, Mint, openSUSE, and Fedora, and various desktop environments such as KDE, GNOME, MATE, and Cinnamon. I have actually been booting Mint KDE off a USB stick in my university library as it literally loads up faster than Windows 7 Enterprise Edition which the library computers use. Why Mint? It comes with everything I need. Why KDE? Like it more than GNOME and it's more customizable too for a n00b like me.
Debian based distros, including ubuntu. Red hat. CentOS. About to install FreeBSD, which isn't linux but it is a unix like OS.

i use freebsd a lot don't bother installing a GUI, not that you would want to anyway.
haha seriously. Even on the 1 vm I have with a gui I just open up terminal and do everything from there. Everything else is remote terminals and web administration
Generally I've stuck to Debian-based distros, but more recently I've been running Fuduntu (largely Fedora-based) and enjoying it quite a bit. My company also extensively uses Linux, although they're trying to take the easy way out for compliance reasons and move us to Windows laptops with PuTTY (we are not amused).
