Interesting point, Aaron. Whereas IBM is counting on deprecation in 2010 to move users, I think you may be right that support for Linux might move a number of people before that date.

The two pieces of software I can't live without right now, that I also don't
have a solid alternative to, are WDSC and Outlook.

Just curious: what in Outlook do you use that Thunderbird won't do? I realize I'm not a power user, but as far as most things go (email, filtering, and basic calendaring), Thunderbird works pretty well.
