The question is, why run both WINE and a dual boot Windows/linux?

I guess if you know Linux well and want a purely Linux box on the cheap, then it can make sense. But I'm so locked-in to Windows progs. Maybe there's a good, light-weight Linux word-processor that fits my needs, but maybe not. Ultimately, for me, it's not worth the distraction atm. I'll keep my eyes open though. Hopefully Chromebooks will force down Windows based devices.
What Atlantis features do you use that say, LibreOffice doesn't have? Or for that matter, Google Docs?
