    Can somebody point me where I can find some ready to use personal/small business(todo,calendar,accounts,...) applications on linux.

    Evolution is groupware, it has calendar, to do and of course mail. For accounts check out GnuCash. Both are available - Evolution by default in Ubuntu and GnuCash is in the repositories.

    Kde has kdepim, which has almost anything. There are lots of apps into that package: kmail, knotes, kontact... I don't use much of this, so I can't be more explicit. Just download any livecd based on a kde desktop and see yourself.

    And then there is Open Office. It's a pretty good productivity suite.

    Welcome to the forums!

    You can check out the following two links for some options that might work for you:

    Linux App Finder | Helping find the Linux apps you need

    The table of equivalents / replacements / analogs of Windows software in Linux. (Official site of the table)

    Let us know what you go with.
