Ah now we're getting there (linux)

So as some of you may know i've been playing heavily with debian over the past few days.

Well I Think I've *almost* got it to a stage when I'm begging to actually be able to use it for surfing and such instead of booting the dog that is vista.

In time I may consider switching for everything except a few windows specific apps (Games mostly )

Have songbird playing my Music off my NTFS partition thanks to NTFS 3G.
Iceweasel/Icedove for internet and email. (basically firefox/thunderbird)
Pidgin for I'm
Gimp for image editing
Haven't installed open office yet since I hardly ever use office type apps lately.

Now all I need Is a decent app for Usenet (might run grabit under wine if i Can't find one) and some more video/audio playback software/codecs
Irc client (xirc?)

Actually thinking of nuking vista off my macbook altogether and using the space currently occupied by it for OSX/Debian since theres not really only stuff I actually need to run on there only had the odd game on my windows partition even my t-mobile usb modem works under Osx and linux.
