If you don't want to run it, don't but sooner or later you will have no choice as there aren't enough applications on Linux or any other platform other than Macintosh that allow you to do everything that Windows does.

Really!?!? Visit sourceforge much? So far I have found a few replacements for some core things I use. Games I can let Windows 2000 handle.
1.) RADMIN=UltraVNC
2.) MSoffice=Open office
3.) QUicken and a few others=Crossover (»

4.) Antivirus=clamwin
5.) drivers for equipment and such=various vendor sites, such as Dlink for the wireless network card and such.
So far just on a basic test drive... I am impressed, and thinking of moving within a year or so.
That maybe true however none of the products you have listed above are not main stream products, meaning that they are not backwards compatible with the comparable mainstream products that Microsoft or other software companies develop and support.
