I cannot do that. I still do some work for past clients and some of my software (primarily AutoCAD) forces me to not only run windows but it forces me to upgrade. While theoretically those programs might run on Linux or et al, it is a risk I am loath to take. The fact that I often share files with others makes me even more reluctant.
