     How do you like the look and feel of RH 8.0?  I really find it
great as a desktop application. The Ximian mail application works better
than K-mail or even MS. I know Crossover and VMware have great features
allowing the convergence of MS and RH.

Question:
Running VMware or Crossover would still require you to run an instance
of MS windows right (guest OS)?
So that being the case, the Linux box is running an app Vmware which
uses an instance or guest OS of MS windows to run that MS dental app on
your Linux box.
Now if you were looking to switch to Linux to get-away from the problems
of MS, this would not work. Right?? 

I could be wrong and just trying to help.
