Open office? No thanks. It's about the worst office app out there. Koffice is about 10 times better.

I'm going around in circles with your term "Linux Software". Much of what's available for the Linux platform is Open Source and has a Windows port (i.e. Apache, MySQL, Mozilla). Then there are the Java Open Source apps that don't care about the underlaying platform (Tomcat, Eclipse, Ant). Then there are the closed source apps that run Better With Linux (SAP, Oracle). Are you looking for apps that replace a MS app (i.e. Apache == IIS)? Are you looking for Free and Open (Eclipse == MS Dev Studio)? Are you looking for ports (i.e. Oracle) of Windows software that's more stable under Linux? How about the various terminal shells? Makes the Windows command line look pathetic, and you have your _choice_ of which one to use. The various window managers are another example of _choice_ being available on Linux and not on Windows. There's a couple of different paths to answer to your question, and I'm going down all of them at once.
