>>There are two things from M$ I still use: skype and fox (on linux, both). And there's very little use I find for skype now, just to stay in touch with the two out-of-town daughters, and perhaps bi-weekly to say hi to the old gang from the last gig.
Regarding the latter on Linux- how goes it?
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
