The problem with windows, is there are SOOOO many people that make stuff for windows that people tend to go....oh, I wish I had something to do _________ and a quick google search later will usually find you something you can download and install for windows (I'm much better at not doing that than I used to be thanks to VMware virtual systems I can test software inside). Linux and mac, there's just not as much selection out there for extra stuff to install. And it's the legacy and bad windows programmers out there that do bad things to systems when they install themselves.

Powerpro is certainly one of the big items that has kept me from diving into an ubuntu system as my main box (I've been working with Ubuntu in work/server space) but there's just things that are missing there. Ipod/iphone functionality, syncing calendar/contacts between computer, internet and phone etc. I've heard that Quicksilver http://blacktree.com/projects/quicksilver.html has a couple powerpro-like functions, but nowhere near the bredth or depth of features. Might be something to look at as a mac person now :) Thanks for checking in, great to hear from you!
