Experience 44 years - it makes me seem old :-( as computer programmer
and the usual collection of other computer posts/tasks/assignments I
truly believe with Centos and Gnome 90% of "ordinary" M$ Windoze users
have what they need.  If they use specialist databases and applications
not HTML compatible (all mine are HTML compatible so they run on any
operating system) they need something which will run in Centos/Gnome.

Dosbox is excellent running pure M$ DOS programmes. Virtualbox and Wine
can also help.  

Waiting for C6 with KVM as that does seem rather interesting.

Its time for the world to drift away from the M$ Windoze expensive
nightmare. Centos is a very good alternative.
