Browsers for those IE-only sites

I agree with almost everything you said Dotan - however, Fedora Core 3 or 4
can be made much faster than XP if you use the XFCE deskop.

XFCE has a windows UI available, and although its different than what most
people are used to (no icons on desktop), you can use apps like konqueror
that feel like IE enough so non-linux gurus can move files around.

When using KDE, my machines always feel slightly more responsive when using
XP. When using XFCE, even my 1.1 Ghz celeron flies. :-)
