Just for the record, I have NEVER liked Windows. I was a diehard
DOS fan. The company I worked for was chosen for a test site for
Bill Gates and company back in the earliest version of Windows cant
remember the number but was wayyyy before 3.1. I didn't like it
then and like it even less now. Had I known about ubuntu earlier I
would have made the switch then. I tried Linspire once but just
couldn't get the hang of it.
Now all that being said. I like Vista better than XP and never
thot I would be caught dead saying that.

Yes I have migrated almost totally to Linux programs, but there is
no alternative for Mastercook and that one is extremely important to
me since I Love to Cook. My personal cookbook contains several
thousand recipes would hate to lose them.
