State-of-the-art Gnu/Linux operating system with apps--based on Debian linux.
Ubuntu, for me, has been a one hundred percent successful replacement of the Windows desktop environment, without the expense or online risks associated with similar products from Microsoft.
People say that OpenOffice2 is --in rare instances--not 100 percent compatible with MS Office files, but my experience has been quite different. I have opened hundreds, perhaps thousands, of different Word and Excel files in OpenOffice2 without a single failure. But I have experienced failures in the past trying to open MS Office files with MS Office itself!
I've been using Ubuntu as my primary operating system on the desktop for nearly a year, and so far it has been sheer perfection--at the only price that's right!
