the only reason i have to keep windows at work for my use is the need
to run a pair of applications that just get weird in virtual machines,
and at home because i game.. and my hardware just will not play nice
in the Linux/wine combination.

and im actually ok with vista. no bugs or crashes really, but im
useing win XP x64 over vista at the moment for how light it is on my
gpu.
