Just wanted to share what i will be working on tonight, have a look see at the screen shots, before and after.
Finally got rid of the proverbial ties, and will be installing a second linux OS in its place.
Yay me =)

Heh heh heh. I don't have windows actually installed on any of my own computers these days. I do have it installed in a VM, PENIS, but I don't use it very often. I use Debian stable for almost everything.
I started using Ubuntu in 2005, and switched to Debian in 2008.

@ Vegan
A totally useless operating system like window$ only takes up valuable disk space.
A job well done...

Another vegan linux user ;-)
At worst being free of Windows pushes you to learn Linux out of necessity. It's all good here on in.
