    dvd-rip + transcode
    xmms
    gimp
    amsn
    LimeWire
    irssi
    Open Office
    quake 3

    #And for the Windows Side

    AVG tough Norton if you can afford it
    echo y|format c: /u/s
    Irfanview (free)
    PowerDVD (not free but really worth it. comes bundled with many laptops/DVD-R's)
