I guess the closest I have come to purchasing software for use in linux is some books; english code to teach me the computer's code, roughly speaking (they're reference, actually). Some of these come with bundled CD's of reference material too; but I did manage to snag some great swag at the Country Fair -- the Linux Journal's '94-2000 archive CD ( = Me like!
Crossover might be one that I go for, though... and in reference to Wine, I'd like to remind interested folks to compile from CVS, I believe there is free DirectX support in the tree (but not free releases). One last bit: I agree that commercial solutions should *not* be overlooked, especially for those who can afford them(!) -- however, there is often a cheaper solution, and often times Good Things come from Free Software (on a deep societal level); however I am disturbed to see GPL poison many good business opportunities, although I suppose they'll adapt (or die) eventually. regards, Ben B On Fri, 15 Aug 2003 00:21:26 -0700 (PDT) Mr O <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: | Somewhat of a mini poll here.
