Whatever distribution you go for I would strongly suggest virtualising<br>
the existing XP system. I have been using VMware Creator for this very<br>
purpose for years to virtualise NT, XP and Vista iron before recycling.<br>
Conversion to VBox isn't too difficult.<br></blockquote><div> </div><div>Whoa! That seems like a really useful tool, as I'm about to convert my work machine to Linux so I can work faster, but there are rumblings afoot about what might happen if I'm not using Outlook for calendar sharing etc.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I'm assuming you mean VMware vCenter Converter as I can't find anything apart from loads and loads of "try our distro in vmware with our vmware creator tool" when I search for VMware Creator? If not, care to share a url?</div>
