The problem with that is that I get totally frustrated any time I have to
do anything with Windows.  I just replaced my wife's Win98 machine with an
eMac so she wouldn't have to listen to my bitching an moaning every time
something went wrong with it.  Getting Microsoft software isn't a problem
as my brother works for the Redmond Raptor (e.g. he got me Office 2004 for
the eMac so my wife can do all her Word and Excel things).
