Hi Paul:

I guess I'm in the same boat; I give up!  I too have to support
people with Windows.  However, I'm not going to recommend it any
more.  Up until XP, I was pretty comfortable helping them.  But now,
with Vista/7, I'm not going to be of much use since I mostly use WINE.
I'm going to openly recommend Mac and Linux since you can dual-boot
Windows if needed.  Also, besides WINE, there are commercial products
like Parallels and Fusion.  There is no longer any excuse to run
Windows exclusively.
