LE through WINE?

don't hold your breath... If you want to run under something more along the lines of linux, get a mac.

Not to get into a Linux vs. Windows pissing match (I use and see lots of value in both), Windows XP uses the NTFS as its default filesystem, which is a journaled filesystem and provides similar features to Reiser, etc. Linux is great in the server room, but it won't be able to take the place of Windows on the desktop until many more hardware companies either write Linux drivers or open up their specifications so that people can write their own drivers.

bb_aus, I don't understand how you can say XP is that bad To me it's much more stable than any other Windows version I've been around to try.
