   In that case you may want to have a look at   
   http://www.linuxrsp.ru/win-lin-soft/table-eng.html   
      
   This page gives Linux-equivalents for Windows-programs. Most of the   
   programs on Windows have equivalents in Linux, some don't, and often   
   you'll have to learn using a program again, becauses things are (just a   
   bit) different.
