Fair question.

I am using XP which is necessary with direcway. If I could access broadband internet from here in linux, and without spending a fortune, I would start the transition now.

I have IE6 and Outlook Express. The only time IE6 is opened is to check HTML coding. You know the problem that different browsers give different results. I don't use Outlook Express, in fact, the only time it has been opened is when friends or family call to ask for help with some problem. Mozilla mail is a great program that is far safer than OE. I currently maintain 5 pop accounts. Opened the fifth one a couple hours ago to handle mail associated with a local election.

I use Mozilla Composer and Arachnophilia (a top notch free html editor that I have used for many years) instead of Front Page for web design. I use Composer for initial work and then tweak the code with Arachnophilia. I found early on that Front Page often did nasty things to a page when it is accessed with another browser.

I use Open Office instead of MS Office.

Thats it.
