Yup, though I don't think I could've switched earlier. I switched my first year of college when I rented a computer, and then used it ever since. My parents certainly wouldn't let me change the family computer, but I did have my own computer as a teen that I installed FreeBSD on (some guy at the local community college gave me a disk).
Seems like everyone who successfully switches, has this regret.
I actually kept dual boot specially for games.
And never used the Windows boot after that (even though the option was there). Turns out it is more fun learning new stuff about a new OS than it is playing games on an OS that you have to fight every time.
