I wish I could do that. I really do. Its work that keeps me on it. My company loves windows and google. The owner specifically. Its upsetting. I try to push linux based alternatives to both but the owner just hasn't wanted to bite.
I'm sure you know this as a fellow IT guy, but seriously WINE can run about anything now. There is an even better app called Play on Linux. That is how I got MS Office running on Linux. It is basically a WINE helper. Helps you install and setup WINE for your app.
For years, MS Office and a couple other apps were my shortfalls for making the switch. Now with so much web based and better WINE windows is irrelevant for me on a daily basis. Still have an old Win7 laptop for certain cell phone apps and such.
