Siemens LOGOComfort has a Linux version which works just fine. It's a
Java (spit!) application and so _should_ be portable anyway.

I have used Ubuntu/Debian for years on my desktop and servers
respectively.

I have Win10 on a Dell laptop - never use it. I run Ubuntu.

This literature is being composed with Claws Mail. Generally there is
an open source (free) equivalent for almost every application you can
think of. The difficult bit is finding them as there is no marketing
department bawling in your ear; you have to go and look for yourself.
