Ok Brad, I'm convinced.
Talk me through it. I'd imagine that I'd need to download base system and a form of distribution before deleting Windows and the partition. is there a step by step you'd recommend?
I watch lots of video. flash and divx. will it work?
Which distributor? I browse web, stream from lots of hosts, play tunes, normally through winamp, and do office work (word and Excel mainly) so compatibility with Windows is a must in this respect as work files will need to be used on work systems that run Windows.
I like decent net speed with no pop-ups but I already use FireFox so that's fine.
What's the best way to go about it. Bear in mind I need to recognise the hardware and find drivers, while not entirely knowing what the hardware might be cos the system info browser can't see them. I'll need to make sure they are there and disassemble is a last resort.
