A mi me llama la atencion Linux, pero una de las razones por las que no me paso es por el software y por los drivers que version me recomendas a mi Gio?
Favoriteeeeee!
Pues todo es de ver que tan nuevo es tu equipo y los componentes, las tarjetas inalambricas dan problemas a veces, pero en general las que yo he encontrado que mejor soportan el hardware son: Mandriva, Ubuntu, Fedora.
Y en cuanto al software pienso que existe tanto de donde escoger que es increible, hay un equivalente, a veces mejor, de los programas en otros sistemas. Lo unico que no he encontrado es un buen software CAD.
Muy buena lista de aplicaciones Gio, y muy completa tambien
Sí Luis como dice Rokuro, hoy en día en cuanto al software no es mucho problema porque como podes ver en el listado de arriba hay alternativas para la mayoría de software que uno por lo general utiliza.
Y pienso que para tu desktop no habría problema con el hardware, te recomiendo que empeces por Ubuntu, por ahí me quedan un par de distros gratis que me enviaron, sí queres pasá por mi casa a traerlos (me avisas).
