Holy crap, I couldn't agree more with that article!! Bit Comet, I have never used, but I have scowled over the others more times then I care to count!!!

I dread that update notice for Acrobat!!
Just because someone can call me Mom now doesn't mean I am gonna be Betty Freakin Cocker and bake any pies.

I have convertx to dvd, imgburn, and adobe acrobat 8 professional, I use utorrent, and use WinRAR instead of winzip. I only use itunes to sync my iphone and ipod touch, usually use winamp to play music, or vlc media player. So I guess i am ahead of the game!

I just switched over to OpenSuse Linux on my desktop and run most of those open source apps on my Vista machine.

This is really useful. I'm gonna have to try the alternative for Adobe Reader, that program is a beast. Open source definitely seems to be the way to go, especially for an OS.

I have dl/ed linux, but I dont think i could get my mapping programs to work on it so I havent bothered trying to install it. Maybe I'll do it on my home computer..
