Hi Joel,

I am using WP8 at linux since it first appears on the market.

I use it daily. I have one copy running on a Debian Woody 3.0 and
another copy running on Caldera Openlinux 3.1.1

I have ordered a copy of WP2K for $14.95 plus shipping (by the way the price have
come down to $4.95 plus shipping) but I have not received it yet
(must be on the way).

I can not give my opinion about WP2K at this moment.

Best regards,
