This is very good! Thanks a lot for your patience and hard work! And I also noticed your “cool” attitude [ regarding some out of the line comments ]. Very nice! It is for people like you that the BIG BROTHERS of the IT world will never be able to have it all their way :-)

Cheers!

@Arthur

Thank you, I changed the link for OpenBerg. Looks like the old link died. I switched it to link here: http://openberg.sourceforge.ne.....t

The Openberg link doesn’t work. I am not sure if it is the site or what the problem is, but it comes up as a Wordpress weblog. Any ideas, because that was the only app I was looking for. Thanks for the list.

Do you remember which ones? Can you list them? That would help a lot.
Thanks!

Nice list. I have to reiterate what “Linux” above asks — why haven’t you included VLC player? VLC is a must have!

Linux is huge – many apps you don’t get in windows, also apps you have to pay extra in windows, like a database engine – how much for ms sql? Very expensive. Not sure however what’s happening with mysql – is it still open source? Something like oracle bought sun? There is still postgresql however which also good.

My children need windows – for playing games as those games are not available for linux.
If all computer games can be ported to linux then in my opinion, windows will loose most of it’s market share.For my work, I do not use windows. I still have dual boot, but might as well format the windows partition and use it for linux.

The more you use Linux the more you realize how much you don’t need windows. Right now I still hve Windows in dual boot or the upcoming PC game Starcraft 2 otherwise I would have deleted it already.

On topic forums…OFF whatever…this FORUM looks like shit today.

Its empty like Iwhoopbatmanass’s father pocket….that’s why his mom work as a bitch with his lil sister….fuck i need to get out of here.
Bye motherfuckers!

btw, regarding to productivity. I found one personal accounting software which is quite useful and easy to use although is under KDE Desktop but can be run under GNOME as well. You guys can try “kmymoney”, sudo apt-get install kmymoney

Have a nice Christmas. :)
