I agree and I 'll be burning a couple of backup CD 's
this weekend, in between studying for my Anatomy and
Physiology exam and finishing up my website. I also
have all my applications and pictures stored on my
Linux machine. I need to back them up too.

You 're right there too. I lost some important work
about a year ago when the hard drive on my brand new
Dell crashed, it hurt. And XP is optimized for
re-installation. XP doesn 't quite crash all the time
but occasionally it doesn 't do what 's expected, which
is fixed with a reinstall. So this is the equation I
use:
multi-media (XP)= play and crash;-}
No multi-media (Linux) = no play and no crash:-|
