Hi! This is Mooquackwooftweetmeow, a collection of stuff by Greg K Nicholson.
A couple of weeks ago, I decided to take the plunge and install Mandrakelinux (10.0 Community) on my Windows XP box, for some dual-booting fun. Mandrake installed remarkably easily, and I found I could easily access my Windows documents from Linux.
Multiple-desktop-ery is allegedly a somewhat standard feature of Linux desktops; here on Windows, however, it's incredibly cool. Two desktop multifiers for Windows that I've recently used are DoubleDesktop (http://www.fatfreesoft.com/) and VirtuaWin (http://virtuawin.sf.net/).
