Eh, I switched. I switched all of my lab's computers, too, and my PhD students have remarked a few different times that Linux is pretty cool. It might snowball.

I don’t think Linux will displace Windows meaningfully any time soon, but I do think people underestimate the fact that most people don’t install their own OSs. They get people like you to do it for them.
