Hello,
Kivio is *the* solution if you need a Visio-style program.
Or so the KOffice people want to convince us.
I haven't actually used MS Visio before, so I can't tell you if it's like
Kivio (only that it exists :-)).
There still aren't many good FPS games in linux. Loki I think had Quake III,
but you won't see many other games. Dual-booting and Winex, as you said, are
probably the only ways to get your daily CS quota.
