that is because Linux is free, so they do not make much profit on it.

Staroffice can be used to substitute M$Office and it can read and write
M$ documents.
You can use latex and xfig in stead of PageMaker or Quark for DTP
You can use the Linux versions of Matlab and Maple, (if you need it)
I do not know which programs are available for design, 3d design e.d., but
there is 'wine' (WINdoze Emulator), so it might be safe to keep your
widoze partition as it is, so you can try to run your favorite windoze
progs under Linux.
