Being the hobbyist/non-IT pro of the group--I'll probably just stick to my dual-boot with Linux/XP.

With Windowblinds and some widgets, I can make my XP system look like Vista--literally for about $20. No spending $$$ on a new WinOS...8^)

Linux is even better now that I have an NX server running and a correctly compiled sheep_net driver...

Now if I could just get a WinXP machine at school to connect to it, I'd be in business 8^)

rze,

If you have the memory on your system might I suggest vmware workstation? if youre strapped for cash you can give qemu a shot and run windows and linux at the same time..
