Windows XP is what made me switch to Linux.

Ubuntu is what made me stick with ANY distro as long as it was not Ubuntu. Most crashy breaky thing ever.

That’s funny, me too! I switched to Mandrake or Mandriva. I liked Ubuntu (Kubuntu specifically), and never had any crash issues, but I wound up going to gNewSense and then Trisquel when those came out.
