I'm on my new computer, and upgrading from 1 GHz to 1.73 GHz does make it go faster. The online text editor where I'm composing this is still painfully slow, but I think that's a problem with my web host, since works fine. Anyway, after some research, I partitioned the hard drive with 20GB of NTFS, to run TinyXP Rev09, then 10GB of FAT32, to relay stuff between Windows and Linux, because Linux likes FAT32 better than NTFS, and Windows can't use Linux filesystems at all without a special utility. Then 26GB of ext3 to run Puppy, and finally a 1GB swap partition. I'm going to try to not get online with Windows at all, so I don't have to mess with antivirus and spyware programs, but it will be nice to have it for games and the few things that Linux is still struggling with.
