A couple years ago I tried working with Red Hat for awhile (different 
project), and ran into so many problems I ended up scrapping the whole 
project.  (I have a VERY low tolerance for sucky software!)  When this new 
project came up I looked around on the web a bit, and emailed people I know 
who had some Linux experience, etc.  It seemed that Corel Linux would be 
about as good as any, based on my brief "survey".  I have been an avid Word 
Perfect user for nearly 20 years now, and since Corel purchased them, I 
have had reasonably good luck with Corel support.  Seemed like a good risk.

Yes.

Same drive.

>Do you have plenty of space free on your windows partition?

Yes.

Several other people on the olug list have responded with what appears to 
be very useful information for all my questions.  I expect to verify that 
later this morning.

Thanks for responding.
