    Right... I removed Windows from my dual-boot systems and turned them into single boot Linux systems 3 or 4 years ago and have never looked back! I've not regretted doing it even for an instant and finally feel like my computers are actually under my control. Simply put, it was the best upgrade I've ever made.

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    I only run Windows in a Linux VM these days, and the ONLY application that I use that requires Windows is my Fidelity stock and option trading software. I keep asking them to either provide a native Linux-compatible version (Java would be fine), or a version that runs well in Wine. I have one other Windoze application for UML modeling that is a Windows application; however, the manufacturer, Sparks Systems in Australia, has gone to considerable lengths to make usre it runs seamlessly in Wine. It works well and I use it daily that way on both CentOS (my main workstation) and Ubuntu (my laptop).
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
    Just remember, Semper Gumbi - always be flexible!
