I'm in an office with a Microsoft network.  I have to have MS file 
compatibility.  I'm a Linux enthusiast, so I want to see how far I can 
go with Linux (and OO, etc.) alone, but I need the Windows-boot just in 
case.

I don't have the time to research and build a machine from scratch 
(although I could).  I have too much work and too many present hobbies 
to do that!
