Just a comment about Monarch. I have been buying stuff from them for years. They aren't the cheapest place in town (but they are still compeditive)and I have had nothing but good fortune with them their PC's are solid and last a long time. Just a shout out! As a disclaimer I am not a paid advertiser, just a stoked customer!
I believe there needs to be an adequate balance between security and funtionality. I take my home security very seriously (not as serious as Mark B.)and monitor everything because I am the only one using computers on it. Unfortunately some of my customer's computer skills can be comparable to that of a donkey's,so I am forced to choose the necessary balance. I think this should be the way every administrator should approach a security situation.

Exactly!!! Hey, at least I know how many characters he uses for his windows passwords, Makes for a lot less time cracking them.
If you are concerned with using WINE and Photoshop consider using VMWARE. I use it just for Photoshop and it works great!
