I'm using Windows XP at the office and I've been using Windows 2000 at home
since I use a lot of Windows-based apps for developing.  I'm slowly working
on transitioning to using Linux (SuSE Linux 8.0) and doing away with Microsoft.
 I've got to get Wine running so that I can hopefully install all of my Windows-based
apps on Linux. There's a few articles I have posted at http://www.linuxprofessional.net
you might find informative and interesting.  This is my "for fun" website
that I just put up and am continuing to add to.  If anyone knows of a good
article, please let me know.  Still no fixes for the sluggish KDE 3???
