if they would embed GNU tools in windows or add it in as a power toy, I would basically never need linux again.
Linux commands that windows fails me on almost daily:
wc
ps
grep ll/la/ls
I got grep and diff working in windows with Gnuwin32.
ok, it's going pretty good thus far. the things that I haven't got working yet are
JBuilder2005 (which I need for my work... this is a pain)
USB2VGA2 isn't letting me move the display.

Is Windows 7 any smaller than Vista? I want to get it to dual boot on my lappy but I don't have much space left on that partition that currently has Vista on it.

7 is about the same size-wise as XP. Much improved.

Well, looks like I'll be putting my .edu address to good use.
I seriously didn't think there would be a 32-bit version. I actually just assumed this and told my boss that there definitely wouldn't be one without looking it up. Looks like I'll be fired.
