Recently I've thought about setting up a third computer (I have one with win7 x64 and another with win xp x32) with linux, but decided against it. I had set up a linux machine many years ago, and found that the effort of getting programs to run was just not worth the time and effort so I scrubbed the linux. Recently, though I thought perhaps that program setups had improved with new linux versions - apparently not so as the above posts show. With windows (or mac), one doesn't need to be a expert computer programer in order to run just about any program of choice - more expensive unless one considers his/her time as worth something.
