My opinion of fluorescent lighting: Can't stand it. Especially in my shop where it makes my wood look pale. When I'm knee-deep in a project and there's wood and shavings all over, fluorescent makes it look messy where incandescent gives everything a nice glow. I know the advantages of fluorescent but just not willing to put up with the dull mood it creates.
On a related note A client of mine just installed power-saver bulbs in his basement. I went down there and turned on the switch. I could see the bulbs came on but none of the light actually reached the floor, heh.
