I do all my work on a laptop which has only Linux installed. At work, I
am provided with a desktop machine that has Windows 2000 Pro installed.
That machine almost never gets turned on unless I either have to report
sick leave - which can only be reported via a horrific Access frontend or
I have to register students for classes, which there's another horrific
database frontend for.
For sharing documents, accessing e-mail, and basically everything else,
I work Linux only - even in the midst of the Windows shop that is my
college.
If you're an avid PC gamer, though, you might want to keep your Windows
around. I hear Windows is useful for games. :)

Leave it. You might want to run a game or test the latest spyware. :)
