I am hoping to get around these shortcomings
By offering free training and support if a person new to Linux will make the switch.

I would make my money in spreedsheet and database design and help the new Linux users out. Starting with family and friends.

Next I am planning to really get the additional Linux server info I need to impliment that end on business. OpenExchage for one.

By then the desktop should be completely ready for business use.

By the way there may be many more modern games ported over shortly. Many of the main titles are already being done.

I have used high end Playstation and Nintendo emulators in Linux and they do much better in Linux than Windows. If you own on of these you can play the games you own in Linux.
