can linux users remove all MS-W applications ?
by polpak from LinuxQuestions.org on (#57P9M)
After a decade using linux (openSUSE and Ubuntu, mostly with GNOME) on my systems still find applications which are there to work with Microsoft applications.
Where-ever possible like remove them where possible.
Which MS-W related applications need we keep, and which can we remove ?
Example: Do we really need to install evolution-ews ?
Is this needed to suit some mail-server which require the MS-W appearance to work ?
