I'd be interested in Linux, except that the two most important programs I use are niche market programs, which don't and never will, I think, have a Linux version available. They are Windows-based. One MAY have a Mac version available, but I don't think so.

And don't tell me what I know, that it's possible to have two different OSs on your computer. That would be a bummer, having to power down on one OS and power up on another in order to use the niche market program, and reverse the process in order to use the Linux system and programs.

Not to mention the filling up of HD real estate attendant on having two separate OS universes on the computer.
