Sometime in November The Wall's mail assaulted the keyboard and produced:

| I have a new system with a 60GB hard drive.  In a dual boot setup, should I
| loadup Linux or Windows first?  Any preference on which version of Windows?

i would suggest installing windows and leaving enough un partitioned space
for linux. most linux distros will allow you to add windows to the boot
loader. if you install linux first, i doubt windows will allow you to
install linux in the windows boot loader.

 What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless,
 whether the mad destruction is brought under the name of totalitarianism or
 the holy name of liberty and democracy?
