I've about had it with windows. While I've got win7 64 bit doing OK it still has issues. Quirky as hell. Sometimes everything works sometimes not. While Linux isn't perfect either, I believe it to be more stable and reliable. I used Ubuntu for a while, but got frustrated with the inability to run windows apps. There is
Wine, but I couldn't figure it out. Now I'm getting serious about Linux. I want to dual boot. Not the other bit of installing in windows and then booting into Linux. Is there a how to around here? I've got 2 500GB hard drives. One is used for storage and backup. I could use it for Linux if I can figure out how to make it work. I can figure Wine out after I get things installed and working. Also, I'm not a dos guy and so much of what Linux does is command line like stuff. That's the biggest reason I stopped using it. I'm hoping to find enough support here to get the job done. Suggestions?
