Stuff I need / want to fully move to Linux

Address Book 4.1.1

Status: Somewhat Unresolved.

Evolution looks kind of promising, but I would like just a standalone address book application. I fire this up all the time to lookup someone's info, and I'd hate for it to be buried in a "complicated" app. Also how do I move my current contacts into it?

Tables 1.4.5

Status: Resolved.

Application: OpenOffice or Gnumeric. I actually prefer Gnumeric becuase it is more like tables, OpenOffice is a very heavy feeling application. It feels like Microsoft Office, where Gnumeric feels more like Tables.

Mail 3.5

Status: Resolved.

Application: Evolution. While I like the simpler Mac Mail UI far better (Evolution is more like MS Outlook which I dislike). However, Evolution has so far done everything I need.

iCal 3.0.6

Status: Resolved.

Application: Evolution. Same complaint I have with Mail - I like the single purpose, separate application UI better, but Evolution does what I need.

Fetch 5.3.1

Status: Unresolved.

Skype

Status: Unresolved.

Safari

Status: Unresolved.

I am hoping Google Chrome gets released for Linux soon.

Firefox 3

Status: Resolved.

Application: Firefox 3.

TextMate

Status: Resolved.

GEdit. You have to tick a few boxes, but gEdit has many features that Textmate has. Missing features I love in Textmate: column select, the jump to file dialog, and subversion integration.

Sequel Pro 0.9

Status: Alternate.

This is only here for completeness, see "MySQL Query Browser". I like this applications UI better than MySQL Query browser, but not to a deal breaking level.

MySQL Query Browser

Status: Resolved.

There is a Linux version, and it seems to work better than the Mac version.

MySQL Administrator

Status: Resolved.

There is a Linux version, and it seems to work better than the Mac version.

OmniPlan 1.6.1

Status: Resolved.

Application: Project Managment

NoteBook 3.0

Status: Resolved.

Application: Zim Zim is a personal wiki application that is fast and easy to use. It works in the same way as notebook does (wiki like) and has a todo tick off item view. It can also export to HTML for posting on the internet. Very nice.

Versions 1.0

Status: Unresolved.

Currently I am using the command line for subversion (and git). It would be nice to have a GUI to manage my repository, but it's not really needed (at least for me).

Time Machine 1.0

Status: Unresolved.

iChat

Status: Alternate.

This is only here for completeness, see "Adium".

Anime Studio 5.4

Status: Unresolved.

GarageBand 4.1.2

Status: Unresolved.

Status: Unresolved.

Dictionary 2.0.2

Status: Resolved.

Application: StarDict. My personal requirement is for a Chinese dictionary (I have plugins for the Mac Dictionary that make it do Chinese). The default Ubuntu dictionary is fine for English and StarDict is good for Chinese (though the UI is too busy for my tastes).

Dashboard 1.1

Status: Unresolved.

Google has widgets that are said to run on Linux, haven't tested yet.

Calculator

Status: Resolved.

One comes with the default Ubuntu system

Automator

Status: Alternate.

iTunes

Status: Resolved.

Application: Rhythmbox. It supports some iPods (not iPhones or iPod Touches though), and if you've bought a lot of media from iTunes you won't be able to play those files; however, it does podcasts (I listen to quite a few), internet radio, rips CDs, and has a few music stores. It fulfills my needs and doesn't lock me out of regions for no reason.
