One of the things I hear often from someone wanting to try linux and leave windows is that they are afraid that they will no longer be able perform some of the things they used to do. That is so wrong. Be it from the perspective of a developer or a casual user linux offers a wide range of apps to suit your needs. Here is a table of things I used to do in windows that I can still do in linux

Application	Windows	Suse Linux – KDE desktop
Chat	Gtalk, Skype	Kopete / pidgin for gtalk Skype is supported
Development	Eclipse / myeclipse / Netbeans	All of them have linux flavours
Screenshot	Gadwin printscreen	Ksnapshot
Browsing	Chrome / Firefox / Opera	They are all supported. Chrome support is getting better
SQL Client	Squirrel SQL	Supported. Java runs anywhere
