The outline looks quite reasonable, but it seems to assume an all-at-once approach to migration. My own experience and anecdotal evidence from friends tell me that this is not always a realistic or ideal method. I would strongly encourage the approach of first migrating to Free application software available for both Linux and Windows before also changing the underlying operating system. This reduces the culture shock and allows you to get used to one thing at a time without being overwhelmed with change. When finally changing the operating system, then, this approach also has the advantage of decreased time from installing to productivity, something that's quite important to the busier ones among us. The standard lot of software I suppose would include Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird, Open Office, Gimp, Inkscape, Gaim, Vim, VLC, and others. -- Alex Nordstrom http://lx.n3.net/ Please do not CC me in followups; I am subscribed to the tldp discussion list. --> --> | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
