So it's boring and it takes patience, but eventually bad players will pay you off. I've tried Party, but was too inexperienced to profit from it, and lost money there and haven't been back, but have done well at PokerStars.com. Also, for freeroll tournaments I really like PokerChamps.com. UltimateBet is a pretty good site. There's one last site I really like for free tournament play, where you can win (and I have) real money ... but I'm not going to say publicly what it is cause not too many of the partypoker crowd has discovered it yet, and I want to keep it that way.

I've only personally played on Pacific, but that's because I'm too lazy to move anywhere else. I’ve heard good things about the rake rebate on party, and I’ve heard good things about Empire.

There's no linux support, but they have more than 10x more players and cash games than any other poker site. The only site I know of that supports linux is pokerroom - because their client is java based.. I've no idea about OSX I'm afraid. And hey, poker's only about luck in the short term, right?

I'm poking around looking for ones that are friendly to Linux and/or Mac OS X users... Thanks for any advice, and hopefully your good luck streak will continue. On which service do you play poker?
