Me too - except at work, where I'm constantly grinding down my boss, who is fast running out of excuses.

At home I didn't really find it hard at all, probably since the only game I run is GTA3 and that runs beautifully (actually at a faster frame-rate) under Cedega.

When it comes to documents, If ever I distribute documentation, it's always in PDF form.
