You might like to take a look at these URLs to get a quick look at some Linux apps :

I find it interesting that the example they use to "debunk" the myth that Linux can't play games is a Windows game being played in the WINE Windows Emulator. Why not use a commercially-available Linux game? There are a few. They usually only cost 25% more than the Windows version.
