The other alternative to Windows is one or another form of Linux. My fellow science fiction writer Joel Rosenberg (he's been writing the kind of science-fiction I like for a dozen years, and was a regular contributor to my There Will Be War anthology series) got disgusted with Windows and decided to set up an all-Linux No-Windows system to do his work. He used Mandrake Linux, and while there were some ups and downs, he reports that he can do everything he wants to do with a Linux box. His wife and daughters have declined to follow him to Linux-land, and continue with Windows, but Joel reports that he's doing just fine, thank you. Mandrake Linux is more stable than Windows XP, and he's finding that Star Office and some of the other applications are good enough for what he's doing.
