David, are you running (Arch) Linux in your law office? If so, could you describe your experiences? What do you use for time and billing?
I too would be interested to hear about solutions for billing and keeping track of time on Linux. I do freelance web development and have to record my working hours and send invoices to clients. Right now I just write down my working hours in a plain text file and use an OpenOffice template for invoices.

Sorry guys for not getting back to you sooner, but yes, my office is all linux except for the secretaries desk -- due to Quickbooks. I have come very close to getting time tracking sorted out with eGroupWare projects combined with its timesheet function. But, as far as books go, I haven't found a Linux replacement for quickbooks. There are some good project making headway, but I haven't had time to check/test anything in the past year. Hopefully, we can give quickbooks the boot in the next year or so. Anybody got a favorite open-source accounting package that would be good to test? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
