| The majority of these applications can be installed by either apt-get or 
| synaptic, however I’ve included the web site addresses of these applications 
| so that you can obtain more information. I’ve tried many of these 
| applications myself - and they are pretty good!

I have the choice, and I still don’t use Windows

,----[ Quot ]
| Apparently it’s possible to seamlessly integrate Windows and Linux, in one 
| desktop, without “interpretation layers” or virtual machines, running Linux 
| as a port to the Windows kernel. Applications run side-by-side as naturally 
| as you could want, as if they had lived together forever.

Study: Developers Favor Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| "Regardless of what kind of developer you are, you're still trying to
| make a living, and target the operating system that?s controlling the
| market."
| 
| However, in the most recent survey, the developers' forecast of their
| target platform has changed. For the first time, these developers said
| that in the next 12 to 18 months they expect to be developing more Linux
| apps than Windows apps.
