I'm making extensive use of linear-gradient on a client's website as a matter of fact. Two images (which could, in reality, be one) for the entire thing, yet it looks as if 90% of the layout is in images. It's amazing how much time (and bandwidth) CSS3 saves.

Getting used to using this is a plus anyway - you can do some cool things by shading with a gradient on top of an image. It's slightly more verbose than just using a color, but shrug.
