Thats It!!!

Fuck it all!
Licence issusde keeping me from working in the CEDA lab, my OS keeping me from listening to Shoutcast due to nonsensical bandwidth cap, and a shitload of work to do in my room -- the worst possible place for me to even try!

Thats it, zsparke, take me to Sam's club, we're getting me a HDD, and some more RAM for good measure. codepoet, faboo, come to my place friday night (like 7). Bring XP and your favorite Linux distro (sorry, Ed, I don't really feel like LFS, so something else, maybe?).

Violence!!!

I reccomend Debian as a good starter's distro. It's not laden with crap like Mandrake (ask faboo about thaT), and apt is the greatest of the package management systems, imo.

Yes, Debian is nice and apt is to be worshiped.

It's good to have most of your hard drive space as your windows partition or to have a large partition that uses a file system that windows can read as linux can read windows-read file systems(there may be an exception but not where the fats are concerned, which is probably what you have) but windows cannot read linux info. That way, you can store all your info in an area common to both so you have access to almost all your data, all the time.

It's happy.

FAT can be read and written by Linux. NTFS can only be read.
