Amusingly, when Windows 7 came out, we Linux users were astonished how similar it looked and worked to... Linux and KDE. Especially PCLinuxOS.
I have Windows 7 on this laptop, but I use it so rarely that I might as well not even have it. In fact when the replacement hard disk arrives, I will be installing Linux only on it. There's nothing I need it for anymore. My language learning software works on Linux... my games work on Linux... and the only thing that didn't work last I checked, was the audio editor I use to build these programs. For that and that alone, I have a Windows installation in a Virtual Machine. I wonder if it would work under WINE now... I'll have to check. It would be so nice if I could ditch Windows altogether.
