I am officially a Linux user. Over the weekend I successfully installed Ubuntu Linux along side Windows XP on my Dell XPS. And let me tell you, it could not have been easier. Thanks to these instructions on how to repartition your hard drive, I was able to complete the installation in about 90 minutes. The hardest part of was tracking down those instructions. The longest part was backing everything up to my external hard drive and then defragging my hard drive (before repartitioning). Once that was done, the actual Ubuntu installation took 20 minutes or so. If you've ever wanted to know what this Linux thing is about, you can't go wrong with Ubuntu. Not only is it slick and very cool, it’s free. Order your free CDs and give it a go. They'll even send you a "Live" CD so you can boot Ubuntu from your CD-ROM and try it out without installing it.
