i think you will learn quicker if you dont have the windows crutch there. if all you have is linux on a machine, you will learn how to use it..

I think dual booting is not bad, but if you do you should really try to stay in Linux as you'll find yourself needing windows less and less as you learn how to do things in Linux.  If you are going to stay with Mandrake, I'd go with 9.0 over 8.2, I found 9.0 much much better than what I used before it, Mandrake 8.1.  If you are new to Linux, Redhat might be a bit harder to learn than Mandrake, but definitely not overwhelming, you can get it right here.

Ain't that the truth. But when a big problem strikes, there ain't nothing a n00b can do about it.  Guess the downside for that safety is the wind0ze temptation.

Link to kernel.org or something, that way you'd at least include all Linux distros.


i agree entirely. they should link to linuxiso.org instead.
