I am using both XP pro & Debian on 2 different computers. But I have found that I am quite glad that I installed XP on FAT32 instead of NTFS, as I can boot to a win98 floppy, and still do DOS stuff. You could not do this with XP on NTFS, or at least not very easily, and then only in a limited fashion.

Well, I am about to install XP Pro and it offers fat32 and ntfs options. I wouldnt go with Linux first since I know nothing about it and know nobody around who is into it. This whole thing about Linux and speakup is unclear to me -- first install Linux and then compile speakup with its compiler? Many thanks.
