Open Source Equivalents article about Equivalents site: http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/blogs/finding_gnu_linux_replacements_for_windows_software The Linux Equivalent Project http://linuxeq.com/ Brief Description: Has a table with Windows Programs (Some licensed, some free) and the Linux Equivelents.
