I am running this as a program in Windows 7.
Bootloader gives the option Windows 7 1st.
Slack0 Puppy 2nd.

blkid shows 4 primary Compaq Presario CQ57 ntfs partitions so I decided to run Linux this way till I save up enough pennies to swap out the drive. I could make the recovery disks (I already have made them) and wipe the drive clean but in case my wife
wants to use this and she has already dumped a lot of data
on here.

Well, instead of purge and burn. I'll compromise and swap out
the drive for a 500 gig 7200 rpm drive or a 2.5 SSD of about 128GIG.

Choice is good. If interested.

Windows 7 can not match that. I am just guessing that though, being biased and all.
