I'm getting a new computer this tuesday, It will have three hard drives and XP Pro SP2 on it. Im am interested in which Linux/Unix OS is your favorite and how to install a dual-boot. XP will still be my main OS and I may not use the Linux much. I have read some dual-boot instructions but I need a more Step-BY-Step and descriptive set of instructions. Please help me! :thumbsup:

Oh and please vote on the pole!

First of all, it is a poll, not a pole. And if you are interested in favored linux distros, why have a poll that doesn't have anything to do with it?

Pull out Google, come back when it's obvious that you have done your research, and you have a question that hasn't been answered a hundred times already. None of us have the time to spoon feed you.
