You do need to stop thinking the windows way, All Linux have start bars with fold out menus click on a menu, click on an application, run the program
you can do anything you want with Linux, you can run windows programs in Linux but it is like everything else you have to learn how to do things, most people cant find the time or don’t want to learn new things, They are mentally trained to use and think windows way,
The thing is when Microsoft brought out Vista people rushed out and bought it, then didn’t like it because it was different from XP nothing was the same so it was a case of I want xp back on my system
if you are willing to learn then all the help you need is available to you, through the Linux forums Not on Yahoo Answers. though some can answer your question, but you might not get the right answer though
If you like action games then Linux as them as well most windows games have been converted to Linux and there is free online games as well. You can check out Sabayon 4 this has shoot em up 3D games you can run from the live DVD which I recommend you download and try out run it from the live DVD play the games I think you will like it

Depends on the version of Linux. but the majority of them include a Start Menu or something very similar to it for starting programs, etc.
Linus can not run any Windows program. However there are some programs that you can add to your Linux PC that will allow it to pretend to be a Windows PC and run Windows program. But they are usually very slow and it does not work well for gaming.
IF you want to game, you have to go with a Windows PC.
Get Wine it will allow you to run a lot of Games for windows and applications and also look in to vmware, I run all my games in wine!
