Well, I apologise if it came across as silliness - it was a touch of devil's
advocacy but possibly misjudged due to a stinking hangover ;-)
I have found out things today and am considering a dual boot setup as a toe
in the water - I can't see me ditching Windows yet, despite its regular
crashes. Anyone tell me how much HD space I would need to install Linux
alongside Win and what is an easy to use distro for the novice?
