What would it take for you to leave windows behind?

Just as the topic says... What would it take to switch to an alternative os?

My fiance is going to attempt teaching me Linux. I'll probably keep Windows on my own computer though, simply because it's what I'm used to.

Hmmm... good question...

I would need the other OS to run Microsoft Visio and Microsoft Project with reasonable performance on my Latitude D800.

I could leave it any day, but since mostly all my apps run on Windows only, so that's why I am sticking. Just untill they make all window apps work with Mac/Linux.

Well if Windows wasn't the main OS nowdays I would switch to something more compatable with todays technology.
