Why not just dual boot XP on the one you have?
Don't know how to do this or what it involves. Thought to buy my way out
of it and notch up a tax deduction to stop the accountant saying I am so
mean and don't have enough deductions for her to play with. And take my
time transferring all the software to the laptop.
Where would you suggest I go to get algorithmic instructions for your
suggestions. I have two hard disks in my winbox, one of which has 2000
on it. The other is not doing much, it was spare so I threw it in one
day for storage.
on a Mac (God, I hope this does not make Ed go ballistic at me a
again... <g>)it is quite straightforward to have a number of OS's on
separate volumes and you can choose what to boot from. When I talk to
windows friends, they say it is not quite so easy (on older machines at
least) to do this with Windows.
