Makes sense (unfortunately :-/ ). I will be prepared, thks ;-)
Another (offtopic) question: anyone knows if Windows 8 can be installed so far on the disk? (XP for example can't handle large disks) I would really hate to have to repartition because of Windows... I will only use it eventually for gaming.
Regards,
Andre

up for itself, and nothing else. So I wouldn't expect any newer
versions of Windows to be any different. Be prepared to redo your
bootloader, for dual-booting, post Windows installation.
The only time I've seen Windows installations acknowledge prior installs
and give you a boot choice has been when installing some versions of
Windows with a another version of Windows. Microsoft only cares about
Microsoft.

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
