I don't think that the original mistake was yours, but that is way off topic.

I have used Redhat since about 4 something or other, Debian, Ubantu, FreeBSD - 
it depends on the job.  There are still some things on XP that Linux can't 
touch for ease, if little grace.  I just won't store data that I need there.  
Hey, System Commander is an excellent boot loader/manager, I have used it on 
several systems.
