Mostly no... Ubuntu is LINUX which is in no way shape or form the same as any window product. It's a totally different operating system. What works on Window's based computers usually don't work on Linux systems... unless the software provider makes a linux version. From your list, the only one I know for sure for Linux is Firefox. |

There is something called WINE that can be implemented in linux to use some, and I mean some, programs meant for windows. Photoshop does not work, at least not very well, within WINE. I think you'll find that 1 gig of RAM is enough to do Photoshop work, listen to music and chat with friends at the same time under Vista, I have had no issues so far. |

actually most of those work. if not there are some pretty darn close things aim u can use preinstalled pidgin which works fine bitlord i dont know but there are many other bittorrent clients to use firefox works i saw a tutorial somewhere to run photoshop on linux. search google but it does have gimp winamp probably no but you could use wine for that or one of the preinstalled apps which work good there is a linux version of limewire so that will also work good luck try sticking with vista though, im on it and its rocking so far |
