The trainers at BCR are getting laptops. Since I already have my Tablet and use it to train I figured I’d play with the new company one. I’m planning on making it dual-boot WindowsXP and Fedora. (It’ll be my office computer so I’m not yet ready to ditch Windows completely.) If anyone out there has any warnings/suggestions for me I’d be happy to hear them. I’ll be doing this the first two weeks of May so I’ve got prep time.
