If you're an Indonesian, you can read some tutorials on making dual boot at http://linux2.arinet.org. Search for 'dual boot'. > 3. Is installing Mandriva a matter of installing as easy as Windows XP?

Of course if all the matters are license, you need to buy the original games also. There's no point of using Linux if all the games installed is still pirated. > 6.
