I wouldn't bother switching unless

1> you run with swap space nearly full (in which case you should 
probably buy a mac or a typewriter instead)

2> have something with a serverworks AGP interface

3> have a sparc

4> use tempfs

5> use IA64

6> use USB esp if you have a usb hard drive (or something like one)

7> use ISDN (are you crazy?)

8> use NTFS or FAT

9> use SMP (multi-processor machine)

None of these apply to me...  Therefore me thinks I'll wait.
