I've dabbled in Linux but moved back to Windows in 2013 when I got back into PC gaming. During my time with it though I alternated between Ubuntu, Mint, Manjaro, ArchBang, and CrunchBang. I managed to create an Arch install in VirtualBox but could never get it to work on my main PC because of networking issues.

It was a pretty interesting experience all things considered, but I'm glad I decided to learn it in an era of Google and YouTube because otherwise it would have been quite difficult. There was always a real sense of satisfaction when I got something to work like connecting a wireless printer, or getting a game to run. A part of me would like to go back, but I put a lot of money into my current PC for the purpose of gaming and I don't want to go through the hassle of getting everything to work the way I want to.
