I had my hard drive partitioned. Windows on one side, LINUX on the other. I have full capability without the BS.

Linux for 3 years now. I did have a dual boot with XP but now I run XP in a virtualbox for the 2 apps that I cannot get running in Linux.
Thanks to Crossover I even have my work apps - Office 2003 and Outlook - running under Linux. It rocks!

Instead of doing a dual boot, use two separate dedicated hard drives for your op[erating systems, and just swap them out depending on which OS you want to use.
I use one of these for unlimited storage drives on the fly.
