I mean it's a lot of work to get windows games and applications to work with linux. You need to download a compability layer(wine is a free choise) or to emulate a computer with windows.  That about the best games, I used those as example of what you had to work a lot with to be able to play on linux.

Mozilla Firefox is easy to install on linux since it's for the linux platform too. If you want Internet Explorer then you have to use wine. And you need to configure or download the right version of wine to get it work on linux. I have used linux a couple of weeks and think "why didn't I install this before".

And for the best games, it wasn't perfectly clear, I meant every game you want to play, but only comes to windows. Compability layers(as wine) isn't perfect and you need to configure them.  Wine don't emulate administration rights and then you can't install programs that requires administration rights to install.

Choose Firefox rather than Konqueror as web browser, but use Konqueror or a ftp program for ftp.
