Linux is
Fast
Stable
FREE!!
Linux isn't
Extremely easy to use (unless you get extremely lucky and the install program does everything right - which has never happened for me)
If you want to try linux, i'd HIGHLY suggest Knoppix which is a CD that boots into linux, you don't have to install anything. Since it's running off of a CD, it is slower than a full install on a hard drive, but if you want to get your "feet wet" with linux, it's the best way to try it.
