My different point of view

gThumb > GQView
A bit more than GThumb, with GQview you can actually do something with images. More advanced viewing options.

The GIMP > The GIMP?
Very different philosophy from Photoshop's. No, you can't do even half of Photoshop's capabilities w/ it. I like it but had to get used to it.

Totem > MPlayer
Why not MPlayer? You have an option of command-line vs GUI operation. Best support for various formats, win32codecs are available.

AbiWord > OpenOffice.org
Encoding is sometimes a problem with Hungarian charset. OpenOffice is painfully heavyweight, but I feel there's a more powerful community behind it. Abiword crashed more often for me.

(I have to add: I don't use Gnome)
