["Robert A. Rawlinson" <rarawlinson@xxxxxxx>]

Sorry I have not gotten back to the many responses I received. A 
little lightning went a long ways. Back up now but I lost some 
messages so If I miss anyone my apology.
Here are some sites which were a big help that were offered in 
some of the first messages.

freshmeat.net
linuxshop.ru/linuxbegin/win-lin-soft-en/table.shtml
gnuwin.epfl.ch/apps/en/index.html

With these I can find most/all of the things I need. My thanks to 
the persons who offered them. Luckily I had saved them in 
bookmarks before I lost the messages.

The only point I was trying to make with all this was I like 
linux and I am not as fond of win. I wanted to help other linux 
newbies get up to speed fast so they are not tempted to go back 
and I still think the best way to do that is to make it as easy 
as possible for them to stay the course. I think some kind of FAQ 
with this information in it would be a help. I will try to post 
these and any others people send me if you think it would be helpful.
Let me know what you think!
Bob
