You may also setup for a dual boot between Linux and windows. That way you can use Linux until you need cold fusion or other programs. Its not perfect but an option until things get better.

I am getting ready to load Red Hat 8. The apps that I am most > concerned with are Cold Fusion Studio, Cold Fusion MX, and Photoshop. What you're looking for is called wine. Check out http://www.winehq.com/ for more info... and http://www.codeweavers.com/home/. But even with wine loaded up, it's not as if every windows app runs in Linux. Rather a select set of applications, that is constantly growing, runs in linux. I don't think Cold Fusion Studio is one of them however. You should look for the Cold Fusion MX for Linux, rather than try to run the windows version.... Ignore photoshop entirely! Use the GIMP! check out http://www.gimp.org....
