It's such a breath of fresh air to run a barebones OS that hasn't become corpulently bloated over the last few decades. This basically restricts you to slim server-oriented operating systems like {Open,Free}BSD and a small number of Linux distros. Everything feels lightning fast. Of course, if you need to use a web browser or something the benefit disappears.
