- People are used to Corel Draw, Photoshop,.Net,
Alternatives are there such as Scribus, GAIM, Mono Project but people are not aware. If someone joins any institute for DTP course, he would have to be taught using CorelDraw, Photoshop because, "most" of DTP providers use these.
The list can go on. Please everyone, do not discuss the individual cases as the intention is only to highlight the problems.
I haven't. But, people who are a part of the list, would know their alternatives, though they cannot be "the" alternative.

kudos rony! You hit the nail on the head :) But you need to agree that KDE and GNOME still have a long way before they can become as userfriendly as Windows UI.
This brings a thought to my mind. Question: The subscribers of this mailing list, have migrated from Windows to any Linux Distribution, OR have been using GNU/Linux right from the day he/she started learning computers?
Because, there would be some people, who like the Windows GUI because they were introduced and taught about the GUI and they would generally resist a change from that GUI to KDE or GNOME.
