Likely yes, but: Fedora 9 works nicely for me and SWMBO. Essentially
though, any Linux with a decent desktop manager would do. I just wish I
could find a Linux-native data modelling tool I liked, then I could
ditch WinXP for all except testing in IE! :)
(actually, not quite true; some customers manage to create incredible
concoctions in Microsoft Word that just don't come across right in any
Linux word processor, so I still need to open up Microsoft Word
occasionally)
