When you put Windows on you'll be wishing you stayed with Linux-there's there's more issues with windows imo. I'm no computer whizz tho'

Why don't you try Mac OS X Leopard. Apple Mac is not supposed to rum on PC hardware, but there are various versions out there which have been adapted to run on PC's. eg: iDeneb, Kalyways and iAtkos to name a few. I currently have iDeneb running on a seperate HD alongside Vista. I have always been a big fan of Vista and I even helped test it for Microsoft prior to release, but personally at the minute, I find Windows to be a pile of poo. It is to be hoped that when Windows 7 comes out later this year, it is a whole lot better. Sorry, rant over. Try Mac, Macca. lol

Windows Vista Black Edition & Vista Eternity are Modded versions of Windows that have all new themes, sounds as well as various services stopped to improve performance. All updates & SP1 are included Plus additional 3rd party software.
