my HD is set up like this:
Partition 1: Windows XP, 80gb or so
Partition 2: Recovery (d
Partition 3: Programming files
Partition 4: invoices
Partition 5: music
I want to combined 3, 4 and 5 and cut the space on 1 to around 50 gb till I have everything backed up, have linux set up, running well, and familier with before removing software from XP and reducing the gb's some more.
Also... what are the differences between Gnome and KDE Desktop?
I'm also considering starting off with Xubuntu for the faster GUI. And it supports apps from both Gnome and KDE.
