Hey man you so need to get Cross Over office, I just work it out on my Linux system, and it can run MS Office 2007 without issue and Open Office also can open most MS Office formatted files without errors …

Agreed. I remembered that I powered my dad’s laptop which has vista as OS and my lappy is running mint. I had the opportunity to launch amsn, check mails before vista loads.

# Started all the software I thought I might need for the day (Pidgin, Thunderbird, Firefox, Eclipse, Tilda and screen)
# Checked my e-mail
# Approved some comments on this blog
# Wrote this blog post

Sounds a very tiring job ;)
You don’t need to install linux to do it.
You can do much more at work with linux.

Are the people using Macs old and crappy because they use Macs, or given Macs because they are already old and crappy employees?

I appreciate all the comments regarding virtual machines, I my self am a huge fan of VM’s and have been running them for years. Perhaps I wasn’t very clear when I wrote this post. I’m lucky to have a Linux box at work, most people don’t have the opportunity. The catch is that I have to have a Windows machine. Some people get to use Macs, problem is, they are also old and crappy.

It’s called a virtual machine. I know what you are talking about, but seriously…THE SOLUTION: get virtual-box, install windows 7 in it, install word on that, and you will never need to leave your Linux box again. Using multiple desktops, you will essentially have two computers sitting inside the same screen. It’s magical. It even works for [some] games!

Interesting morning. I’ve been considering taking the time to optimize my boot time on my company laptop. Considering I turn it on and then walk off to get coffee, I always am able to find something better to do instead of optimize it (god I’m lazy).

Wow!! Fifteen minutes!
