I did the same thing, and set aside 20GB for windows... but I haven't been able to find a way to use that partition yet. I ended up using Parallels, and I have to admit it ROCKS! I have a Windows XP virtual machine, and in the "Coherence view" My desktop has the Dock along the left edge of my screen, and the windows taskbar at the bottom, and everything is seamless. I can use the XP to test installing software on a totally clean machine, and after I do that I revert to a clean snapshot & try again. I just installed Hardy on Parallels, and it went without a hitch. I'll use it to do some development work where the libraries I have work on Linux but not Mac. Does Boot Camp rock? I think the one advantage it has is that you get things like 3d acceleration for games... -Jim
