    Could you also run SQL Server management Studio or other business applications that need to connect to databases?

      I have used the Linux version. Installed MS Office, an older version, that immediately connected to get updates. It was successful. Excel, Word and Access all worked under Linux. Crossover has been around for a few years. This is a good deal.
