So I've pretty much had it with windows.  I was all excited with 7, and it
worked great for a couple of months, but now my systems has slowed way down
and I can't figure out what is going on.  At this point it looks like I will
have to reinstall, and frankly, I don't really have the time for it.

I'd like to make the jump to actually using linux, at least give it a shot.

I've used the Unbuntu live cd to recover files from virus infected pcs but
that's about it.

So I will be doing a reinstall of windows, but will create a second
partition and slap linux on it and give it a go.

How do I set up a dual boot system?

I use CS3 for dev, DW and PS, and need to find OSS alternatives.  For my
IDE, these are the features I like about DW and would like to see in the
software I use:

1.  Integrated FTP.  Right click and put/get files or folders.
2.  Multiple site management.
3.  CF code auto complete/tag insight.

That's about it.

For photoshop, really I just need a decent editor, preferably one that can
work with psd's, though I can always boot into windows if need be.

Also, I would like to be able to remote desktop to a windows xp machine, as
my server is running that and I may need to access it from time to time.

So what distro should I look at?

Thanks!
