Either way, it will end up being dual booted and I'd have to do a bit of
partition shuffling to accomplish it. It's not so much LINUX as the

Oh no, no, no, no. No "I LOVE YOU" viruses for me. Outlook is not
comming anywhere near my machine if I can help it. I'm sorry, but
putting Outlook on my machine is tantamount to injecting myself with raw

I do not know, but hey, why take that chance...
