I have Linux 2.0.36 running on a IBM Thinkpad 760EL (64mb ram, 2.1gb hd) and use it for developing GTK+ and GNOME applications. Kinda neat, I can develop on my workstation (Dual P2) and then continue to develop on the road with my laptop. I find it very handy, besides the 'Aww man, you have a portable Unix box -- cool.' comments I get. It's fun having a server OS on the road.
I use WindowMaker and GNOME. I develop in GTK+ because of costs issues with Qt. The applications I write will be released as shareware and some will be freeware. GTK+ offers me the best cost solution. Qt is nice, but anything I develop in Qt (if I do) will be freeware, unless I can see making lots of money from my apps written for it.
I plan on donating pertcentage of my sales to help out the Linux movement. This means donations to the Free Software Foundation and other groups involved in producing free software for Linux.
I just like GTK+, but also have Qt around for other applications I may use.
