Extremely valid point. Though I still have the token W2K system and am forced to downgrade to Windowx XP at work, 99.9% of what I need can be done in *nix. SUSE excels at managment tools and stability. Once you figure how to do a few things "the linux way" it is worth your while. For the past year, now, I pretty much dread having to go back to Windows. Though, like most, I've got SUSE on one system and Wintendo on another. For those few apps I need in SUSE, they provide Wine or you can purchase Crossover Office (http://www.codeweavers.com/) which allows you to run many Wintendo applications on Linux, such as Visio: http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/suse/2006/visio2002_on_nix.jpg http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/suse/visio_suse.jpg or MS Office: http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/outlook_save.jpg http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/word_openoffice.jpg or MS Project: http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/suse/cx_project.jpg or even IE: http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/linux_dell600m_ie_sample.jpg > I have been windoze free for several years now...
