machine with openoffice?
dude, you would then need to double the cpu speed to make it even close as fast as office.
nah, linux box with kde comes with office, devel tools, firewall, browser, various mail softs, various servers...
just choose in the installation package options it to have samba 3 and apache and you got a full range of machine which fights all ms products.
oh, some did not know, samba 3 runs fine with ad.
