Obviously that would be a good counter point but there are linux OSs that are just as good if not better than windows, even for games. I've seen plenty of instances that show windows games run better under wine than they do on windows. As far as other apps go wine is a really good technology. If I actually write it up I will for sure send it too you first. I've got to finish my paperwork today then I might actually pen a letter I doubt it'll go anywhere but I might do it anyway.
