I have largely quit using windows in favor of Ubuntu for about the past six months. It can do the same things windows can--browse the internet, watch/listen to media, hook up to an ipod or thumb drive, use office, etc. Without the massive bloat that every application you install to windows adds. Whenever you install any major application in windows it integrates itself with your computer like some kind of evil tree digging its roots into your computer. Everytime I install something I get to play the uncheck-all-the-boxes-game so that I don't have eighty processes making my computer take 5 minutes to boot. Then there's viruses, and in their effort to make computers as accessible as possible microsoft designs all their programs for dummies, using helpful wizards and paperclips to guide you through basic tasks.
You can even download internet explorer on ubuntu for website that require it! It's great. Plus, you can always dual boot and use windows when you HAVE to have it for games or something that is very windows exclusive. So, in conclusion, I will be sure not to upgrade media player.
