I run full linux with a Win4lin emulation session for my windows programs.
I am a systems developer .. and yea the in-house systems only runs on 
windows.. so that way I have best of both world.. 

I am pushing for the company to adopt it as standard practice. Win4lin comes 
in a server adition which will allow all the people to run remote windows 
sessions on a central linux server giving unimaginible benifits of security 
and stability..

Just thought I could share a good peace of sofware.. been using it for 3 years 
and have never looked back..  have a look at www.netraverse.com

O yea.. and the support is great.
