I know OF the fact that you can run windows apps on Linux systems, but I just have one query about it
I think I may format my laptop so I can play with linux properly. I need the computer for school, and the only thing I will need for school is the Microsoft Office Suite.
Can this be emulated properly on Linux? its the only thing I'd really need.
Thx
download Star Office 5.2 it can even save files in the right file type so MS office will open it
I am the last person to comment on *nix, but i'm sure Cthulhu running CS in a windows window, as hes PS2 port is ghey, and Windows needs it to boot up. so he loads linux and then opens a window and plays CS

I thought there may be some linux prog to do it... I might but a linux book in the comign weeks to learn the basics, then take the plunge
OpenOffice
Can save and read office file formats (with the exception of VBscript - which IMO is a viral risk anyhow).
Also Codeweavers have a variant of Wine that can run up to Office 2k (they can't test OfficeXP as it has a clause in the EULA requiring it to be run on only Microsoft OSes)
