Not being able to play a Celine Dion cd on my computer might be a good thing - LOL. Anyways, lately I've been very tempted to give Linux a shot. However, there are a few windows programs that I'm stuck on - Poser, a few games, some graphics apps - that don't seem to work with the Linux MS emulators. I could "dual OS", but to me, its against the point of going to another operating system. If anyone could give me some pointers as to which distro to look into - decent hardware compatibility, somewhat familiar shell (would need to get weaned off of that, heh), I still might though. ;)
