I'm going to add Linux to my PC to get a dual-boot configuration.
(I'm tired of sloooow start ups and want to tap into the great tools
available.) The tutorial I'm looking at suggests Ubuntu. Is there a
significant difference in Linux implementations? Is Ubuntu one of the
better ones? Does it make a difference for running D2?
Thanks in advance for your hellp.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to my off-topic question. I
installed Ubuntu over the weekend. It took me a couple of tries to get
it right (mostly because I couldn't decide how to partition the disk)
but the installation process was so painless that it wasn't hard to
redo it. Now I'm getting acquainted with the OS. :-)
Thanks again!

Good luck! Always afraid of unfamilar territory, I first tried Linux in
a dual-boot setup too, several years ago. I think it took about a week
before I deleted the Windows partition, and I've been using Linux
exclusively ever since. :)

Same here! And the step looked unconceivable just a couple months
earlier. I remember how a friend who was in the beginning stages of
Linux asked me several times and very incredulously: "What do you mean
you don't have Windows at all on your laptop?"
