Dear Marcus:

Since you are giving up Windows, here are a few more suggestions:

1) Download "Mplayer" for DVD and, most importantly, for Windows Media 
Player and Quicktime via the Mplayerplug-in (not directly associated 
with mplayer). It's one of the great open secrets of Linux. Most people 
think they have to give up WMP and Quicktime in Linux. Absolutely not! 
Look for the RH rpms via yum "yum install mplayer", etc. You should use 
yum because the total package includes many dependencies.

2) Get k3b for your CD/DVD recording, burning, etc. As good as Nero.

3) NVU -- WYSIWYG Web editor, like Dreamweaver. Not quite ready for 
prime time, but getting there.

4) Download RealPlayer 10 from their site. To make the embedded plug-in 
work, you might need HelixPlayer, too. At least that's the case on my 
Scientific Linux.

5) Download Bluefish and Quanta Plus as HTML text editors. Excellent.

Benjamin
