I hope to be able to hold out until Windows 7.
Windows is like Star Trek movies. Every second one is shit

You are so lucky, Vista is crap!! Keeping fingers crossed for something much, much better!

Ran fine for me too, however, I have now ditched microsoft OS' in favour of Linux.
Why? Well, if you read microsofts future plans you'll see why.

As I am not playing swg anymore I can't say. However, back in 2006 I tested SWG in linux + wine it worked perfectly. As both linux and wine have been updated I'd imagine it works fine.
As for a dual boot, no need to dual boot if you want to test linux out. The latest version of Ubuntu linux (8.04) can install into a folder in windows, and if you don't liek it, can be removed via add/remove programs in control panel

Wine runs games fairly well, the only problem atm is DX10, which is not supported, hopefully one day.
