I finally made the switch! My Windoze XP fried again, this time it locked up solid with a black screen of death. Nothing worked including recovery disc and I finally rescued my latest data with a Ubuntu boot disc. So I decided to make the plunge and loaded Ubuntu 8.1 side by side with XP. I am going to keep the XP for now as there are certain programs I can't run on Linux, such as my Garmin software. So far it's working great and I'm spending most of my time using the Ubuntu rather than the Windoze.
