Hello,

When looking for software packages to work with, I demand cross-platform capability. Take a look at Photoshop, or Ragtime, or Adobe Acrobat, or Open Office. Mac Version. Windoze Version. Linux Version.

For things like Online calendaring and email, I look at web-driven programs such as eGroupware, a suite of email, calendaring, addressbooking, and other features all running in a web browser. If I need databasing, it will be MySQL.

I refuse to work with OS limited companies, such as Linksys, unless the customer demands it. I will then smile and do my thing. But when I have the choice, and the purchasing decisions are on my desk, I go with the ones that will work with other platforms.
