<p>@originalthought It might have just been the group of people I was around, but I have a feeling that there are quite a few linux enthusiasts on campus. I also know a lot of people that at least dual boot linux (including myself… they converted me) and a smaller few that seem to use it almost exclusively (except for the gaming thing… then they use Windows).</p>
<p>@itsjj You don’t need to have your own computer for CS, but it is nice. You’ll have access to the labs at the LAC and in Academics, so there are alternatives, but it was definitely a lot easier to just sit wherever I wanted at stare at the screen for an extended period of time.</p>
<p>And the gamers I know /can/ be intense about their games, but as a non-gamer, I still think they’re awesome people! :p</p>
