yaa, what i can tell you about it... you will need it again, although you don't like it, depends on your custumors of course, but don't put too much hope in that... i am my own boss and there are too many "apps" i need everyday: Outlook Photoshop Excel Acrobat Word InDesign and on and on and on... and there is just no alternative LINUX-way... i really tried id, but it does not work... OpenOffice and Gimp and stuff are good, i know, but there are many limits... customers want their stuff and they get their stuff.... Edit: and please don't tell me about Thunderbird or Lotus Notes, i tried that too and it does not work with customers overalll...
