I give you the fact that in a GENERAL sense, gaming capability is important; personally, I don't game, I use my computer as a tool, not as an entertainment device.
Secret Method, you might want to look at Vari-CAD; it has the most potential as a Linux-based CAD system. I don't know what your interest is in CAD, but I work in the Aero-space industry; the company I work for builds Primary Fight control systems for aircraft; the MicroSoft overhead is STAGGERING, that's my interest. I'm working on a Linux application suite that's based on Debian; it's oriented toward small machine shop owners- I think Linux could level the playing field, as far as cost of operation goes.
