MANY CONSIDERING LINUX BUSINESS DESKTOPS SERIOUSLY

"But far more enlightening was the lion's share of readers who 
explained that they needed just one or two more key applications 
before making the jump to a Linux desktop.

The arrival of Linux-based office suites has reduced the points of 
concern to applications like MS Access (for quickly building 
databases), MS VisualBasic, and MS VisualStudio (for quickly 
building applications), and for home users, Quicken and TurboTax."
