I have on windows box.  It stays *OFF* most times.  I enjoy playing 
games.  The only time I turn the box on is when I need to play UT or 
something.  I run win 98 first edition on it because thats the best 
windows I've found that works for games.   I'm not going to say that 
windows doesn't suck.  There's a reason I don't keep the box on, but 
it has its uses just like any system does.
