Juma,

I case you had not heard of it, and if you own a PIII or P4 with a lot of memory 
or can afford to pay $35 bucks to double your memory, you can use VMWare
workstation from http://www.vmware.com to run Linux and Windows simultaneously
(not dual boot which becomes a pain).  I do this myself and am most happy
with it.  There are personal use and edu prices available.  I would hardly
dream of dual boot anymore.... VMWare makes your PC like two PC's and 
you run VMWare client on Linux, and in it you install Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP
and run Windows - it thinks it's on its own PC, network and all.  If you
have enough disk space you don't even need to reparition. VMWare supports
as an option a virtual disk setup so it uses the Linux file system.

BTW I have run Red Hat 7.1, upgraded to 7.2, and now 7.3 and all went
really well....I recommend the upgr. Download the ISO images for free. 

Peter
