Conscious Conservative asked:

I would like the Kubuntu enviroment. I dont know why but I just like it more than Ubuntu. I had Kubuntu installed once, but then I read it works better if you have Ubuntu installed, and then installed Kubuntu on top of that. True or no? If so, I would like to, and can I do this without losing all of my files in Ubuntu?

Sixov H. asked:

Hey all,

I have a computer that runs Windows 2000 Pro. I think the CD is SP1, but it might not be.

Anyways, I just recently purchased another computer (IBM NetVista) and it came with a Certificate of Authenticity for Win 2k Pro. I was originally going to install Debian Etch on it, but I was thinking about installing Windows 2000 instead, so my little brother can play with it.

Would it work if I used my OEM Windows 2000 CD to install on the NetVista using the key provided? Is it even legal?
