My goal... To successful install and use FC3 in a virtual machine hosted by WinXP for however long it takes me to find, install, understand, and otherwise replace by existing M$-based apps with Linux versions. Then, once I have everything ready to roll on Linux, and have no NEED for the Windows apps blow away the box and install it as a FC3-only machine.

Start again. Install FC, VMware, XP. or try Ubuntu. It's debian-derived, almost as friendly as OS X. Base system installs from a single CD. There is a second, a live demo.

I've heard a lot of good things about Ubuntu. Has anyone had any experience with it? Comments?
