Last days in Windows world
[Software]
@ 03:23 PM
These are (hopefully) my last days in the Windows world. After coming to Vrije, I found things just right to abandon Windows for good.
Frankly if there are no dependances forced on you by a company's use of Outlook or other specific Microsoft products, there really is no reason to stick on to the Windows world, ofcourse assuming that you are familiar/comfortable with Linux.
A list of tools I (will) frequently use in the Linux world:
- Firefox or Opera - Browser
- Thunderbird - Mail reader
- GnuPG - an OpenPGP implementation
- Seahorse - GPG frontend
- aMSN Messenger - An MSN Messenger clone for Linux
- OpenOffice - Wordprocessor
- "mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/fuji" to mount my FujiFilm 4800Z from USB
