Linux really shines on the cheap, low-wattage Atom and ARM platforms. Since it is modular, you can customize it so as to scale it to the hardware. I couldn't imagine running Vista or Win7 on my Atom gear, but a full gnome desktop with all the eye candy enabled runs just fine. Swap Gnome for XFCE or LXDE and it flies!!!

And really, compiz is just too cool:





Ok, now I am starting to act like a Linux evangelist!
