Cheryl,
Don't just kill Winblows, take advanttage of the MS offer to give you a
refund if you reject the license conditions.  You'll probably need sighted
help to do this, but they can't legally deny you, you might want to try
the vendor first, being IBM, thety may help you as Linux is their main
line of development these days - yes, they have stopped developing AIX in
favour of Linux, which is why you shouldn't have a compatibility problem
with IBM machines.
