Still it goes, the OP is trying to get away from MS-Win, not find some 
non-MS clone.    So, why are you trying so hard to continue to stick 
him with something MS-Win.  Allow the guy some freedom to move out of 
that mess without trying to play word games about alternatives on him.

If he wants out of MS, then let him out of MS and not consign him to
something he doesn't want.
