No linux client turned me off of full adoption (especially when dropbox does support linux)

  While Dropbox does support Linux, I could only get the client to work on the Ubuntu distro. Not saying that Google Drive is better (they don't even have a client), but that Dropbox Linux support is not so good.

    I got it to work pretty easily on Centos.

    I haven't tried this, and it's a bit old, but: http://v3gard.com/2009/04/using-dropbox-on-slackware/ http://v3gard.com/2009/04/using-dropbox-on-slackware/ Seems like the general idea could be used on other distros.

    I'm running it just peachy right now on Fedora 16 x86_64. Add a repo, install the package, and it bootstraps itself. It's quite clean.

    `yaourt -S dropbox` on Arch Linux works fine :) Been using their linux client since 2008 or so, and I can't recall having any problems.
