I know the feeling.  I really wish I didn't have any use for it.

The last problem was kind of a Debian gotcha.  The update-grub or whatever 
script that finds your kernels and other OSes put an entry for what is 
apparently a recovery partition.  I booted that, which is what unwound all 
the work I had spent trying to make Windows less of a pile of crap.  Not very 
helpful.

I need to read up on how to override the defaults so I can still use the auto 
updater while maintaining some custom changes, if that is possible.  
Otherwise, so far, so good.  I'm still impressed that the wireless flummy is 
working.

Now I just have to tweak it up a bit with a real kernel and such, and I guess 
I have my first Linux laptop with no grey hair at all.
