If you don't game or use your box for Photoshop or a handful of other
apps, there is no reason to use Windows. Linux (Kubuntu is great for
starters), you would be surprised how easy it not to fork money over to
m$. Just my 2 cents. I would not buy a single core machine these days.
My home box, wifes laptop and work box are all Linux. My work laptop is
m$ because I have to use flash and MS Project from time to time.
