You didn't. What I meant was that you are from New Zealand and your English should be better than the msn/l33t trash you wrote earlier.
Nevermind though, it's not important.

What OS are you going to install ChrisP? WinXP, Vista, Win7, or Linux/Win Emulator or Dual Boot?

Vista Home Premium at least. but I think I'll do a dual boot with Windows XP. I'm really tempted to try a triple boot with Windows 7, but I'm not sure I'll do anything with it... just look around... in which case it'll be a waste of time, effort and hard disk space.

hmm maybe just use a cheap smaller drive to play with Win7. And go and play lots of flashy games first.

Nope!
Don't worry. I've done this many times so I know the potential dangers... not that there are many tbh.
Building started +/- 15 min ago...
