I've done dual-booting in the past, and I suppose I could do it now, but I really don't want to do anything to my main computer. It's the only functioning one I have at the present time and I'm hesitant about doing like that to it.

Another thing that has slowed my implementation of Linux is my affinity and constant use of programs like Photoshop and Acrobat 8. There are just too many things I do with these programs that I can't do with a Linux product, and though I know there are programs similar to those that can run on Linux, I can't take the time to learn them while I am doing my normal routine.

But never fear, I will tackle the beast soon. Right after I get my fuel pump changed in my car. oy vey..............

I heard that. There are programs like this that I use for which there3 are no comfortable replacements in Linux. Which is why I use the dual boot and haven't made the 100% switch to Linux.

I've been working up to experimenting with Sun's Virtual Box to run Windows from within Linux but haven't had time to get into it. One day perhaps. After I scape down and re-stain my deck and do the same to all the railings. You ain't kidding 'oy vey iz mir'.
