I'm sorry, but why do you think people should convince you to switch to Linux? It is your own and free choice, to switch or not to switch.
Does running MSO under Crossover/wine compromise speed a lot?
I tried it with Crossover, and it was _very_ slowly (MSO 2003). In addition, I could not see some elements in large documents with complex formatting that I had to translate, so I refused to use MSO under Linux at all.
(I recommend Ubuntu... that is becoming really mainstream)
Hmm... I don't think Ubuntu is worth to become the _real_ Linux mainstream.

Thanks all of you for the advice. I installed Ubuntu as a dual-boot and I wish I´d done so long before. Installing was dead-easy. Don´t have any details on all hardware and software, but you´ll see me on the forums

Ubuntu rocks! It's all we used here at Baldwin Linguas until recently, when we released our own Linux distro for translators, Linguas OS (http://www.linguasos.org). Linguas OS is one of two recently released distributions specifically for translators. PCLOS-Trans is another, and also an excellent distro.
One of the great things about Linux...so many options, and none of the cost a penny!

And thanks to all for participating, I now more or less know what I can do with my "old" Packard Bell PC to give it a second (and hopefully more stable) youth...
