Smithveg. I have followed your mails to this list and I can say you
seem to be intelligent, knowledgeable and of an enquiring nature.
However, most of your enquiries seem to be about how you can run
Microsoft applications on Linux. If all you want to do is replicate a
MS Windows environment then you are going to have to bite the bullet at
some stage and change your mindset. Linux will NEVER be Windows. To use
Linux to it's fullest extent (and I don't know anyone that does) you
need to a) invest time and effort and b) free your mind.

The rewards are incredible.
