I'm forced to use WinXP at work (although I also have an FC3 box in my
office that the big boys don't know about).  I'd be happy to test
anything you come up with.  

I agree with you that the best route would be for this to NOT require
any other installations like alternative printing systems, etc.  I find
that many people unwilling to try Linux are also not interested in other
open-source options.  It's not always a matter of program quality.  They
just want what everyone else has or what their corporate IT folks will
be able to fix.  There are people where I work who won't install Firefox
for fear that the help desk won't help them if they have any problems.
And in fact, the help desk may NOT help them if they have problems and
they mention that *unsupported* browser.
