[QUOTE="Fenlock, post: 1667673, member: 6305"] well, the short answer is no and the long answer is probably :D you can get libraries for linux that emulates the win32 api. some applications will work, some wont. :( personaly i dual boot between linux and windows. I use windows for games and linux for everything else. but then, i dont mind spending a whole evening trying to get something to work. and since google came around, the amount of information for linux is as easy to get as for microsoft.... but back to the topic. if you are not computer savy then go with what you know. If you have dsl or cable connection, remember to get all patches to windows, virus scanner and firewall up and running before you connect to the internet. /f [/QUOTE]
