I have it running on Dual boot now and I still would rather put the
Windows one on and get rid of the Linux partition because

1) No Linux support for dual monitor for my G400 Max
(Dead Right 21" Monitor is annoying with the authorized video card)
2) No support for my ADSL modem, so I'm at 56K in Linux mode.
3) No support to read/write NTFS under Linux, I'm losing 100+ gigs of
space when I boot to Linux.
4) Loss of alot of my other cool cards in Linux, USB, Firewire,
VTNT all which can put to use in writing real applications.
