Yes and I think it's great to save as much energy as possible. However I still use a mixture of the old light bulbs and cf light bulbs.
First of all I think cf lamps give a horrible reading light. But even more troublesome is the fact that they take up to several minutes to reach their fullest light spectrum. I simply cannot wait 2 minutes to put my coat into my closet in the hall, or 2 minutes to got to the bathroom for 1 minute.
So I use low energy light bulbs in the areas where I know I'll leave the light on for longer durations. But otherwise I tend to stick to the now banned good old light bulb.
