2008 marks me using Linux essentially full time on my desktop for six years. In spite of that, I’ve kept a dual boot system with Win2K then WinXP that entire time. For a while it was so I had a backup for things that didn’t work properly in Linux (cd burning was a pain for a while, I forget what else). In the past two years or so I’ve been able to solve every issue I needed Windows for, so I came to a point where these were my lingering reasons for keeping Windows.
These reasons are no longer good enough for me to continue to devote 40G of harddrive space to it, so tonight I finally rid myself of it. I now have a 40G /data partition on my desktop, and no more Windows. I feel so much cleaner now. Yay!
