Default Top 3 application that you wish existed as Linux versions

Let see if we all share the same opinion on this one. Lets pretend that Wine doesn't exist. What applications and programs would you miss the most from Windows?

For me it is
1. Spotify
2. Steam
3. Nokia PC suite


But I don't miss IE. That's for sure

Read the first message. Pretend that Wine doesn't exist. Wasn't expecting a moderator to break the forum rules

Um, I didn't see any mod break the forum rules. Caf was saying that he
couldn't think of any application that runs on Windows that he wants/
needs ported to Linux.

I'd go for the blackberry suite myself (barry doesn't work for me) and
Moray. I'd also like to see some real support from Webex (they say it
runs in Linux, but when I tried it last time, it said it couldn't
identify the platform or version and refused to start - the fact that
they only give you 5 minutes before a scheduled appointment to get
everything working isn't a huge help, either).

Ditto. I haven't used Windows in so long, I don't miss anything. I do not own any Windows software, so I don't use wine anyway.
