The part I don't miss is having to deal with drivers, sudden breakages, etc. Nothing's perfect, I guess. To be fair, you can do the same thing on a mac with macports. I use it for all sorts of things, but it never seems to work out for me in this case. I will definitely go back to Linux if Apple decides to apply their iPhone/iPad-like restrictive policies to laptops. Yes, I do miss Gentoo sometimes.

You can also play a bit with USE flags so that you can customize the installation: for example to have matplotlib using traits ( http://code.enthought.com/projects/traits ). Now.. wich one is easier?
