I installed Ubuntu on my notebook that came with Vista, it’s a dual installation. I hate Vista, but Microsoft is the standard for software. With Wine for Linux, allowing me to use Windows apps, is there any reason why I shouldn’t remove Vista from my system and free up more space to run Ubuntu?

Are there any major pitfalls when trying to open files you used in Linux on windows machines? I’m talking about Word Processors, pictures, etc. Also, what common software don’t work with Linux? When you use Wine to open software, does it just display windows within a Linux window so you can use a microsoft app?

Is there a software package which can contain a virus executable or a harmful executable like it was running in wine on linux or similar. Like a shell or folder you could open an application in that would contain anything the executable tried to copy or etc so that when your done using it you could delete the folder and it was like you never ran it. Ideally I could setup linux and use wine to run the program but i dont want to have to go to that much trouble.

It’s a new netbook OS. I noticed in some of the screenshots it shows software such as WINE. Does it use a Linux kernel, or its own Unix-like kernel?

I’m still VERY "no0b" at Linux and I was wondering if there was any software similar to (if not replicas) the Microsoft line of programs (word, powerpoint, excel, so on).

I’m using Ubuntu on a PS3 and since my other computer went down, I can’t use it…so no .exe files…I don’t use wine..or whine…whatever it is.

Anyway, while my computer is in repair (yay for extended warranty) I’m stuck using my PS3, so, please help me with some programs (prefferably ones that save to .rtf files) to help me with my work.

This might be hard to explain
But what code makes certain operating systems open different files
for example
Windows can run software created for windows, like exes and such
Linux can run software off of wine only, and .tar.gzs and such.

why cant linux run .exes and why cant windows run .tar.gzs?

Is it the kernel that makes the difference or what is it?
The reason im not switching to linux is because of that..
