The missing pieces for us are -- desktop publishing (Microsoft Publisher-like application), easy to use graphics program (they have GIMP but find it to be overkill and I agree). We have not had a demand for a project management applications (Microsoft Project-like) but I think that the organization could use it and I am looking for a more fully featured one than MrProject.
For "easy to use graphics program" are you looking for something like Paint Shop Pro? I know CorelPaint was available for linux for a while on a free (as in beer) basis. Have you looked into that? (Actually, I don't know if it is still available or not, sorry.)
For the other two, well, those of you saying that the linux desktop isn't there yet, there's a concrete need that has yet to be met. Time to get working. ;-)
