[CoLoCo] Dual-boot and wine options (again)

[Jeffrey LePage]

Thanks for your earlier responses.

I have a few follow up questions.

First, I checked out system76.  I notice they install 64 bit Hardy Heron.  I have been installing 32-bit on my 64-bit hardware because Adobe Flash (among other things) doesn't work on 64-bit.  Am I wrong about this?  Also, System 76 _is_ pricey compared to Dell.

Second, I did look at some local white-box assemblers.  I like local because I don't want to deal with shipping and I hate dealing with distant vendors.  Has anyone dealt with either AXEss computers (http://axscomputers.com/) or The Computer Guys (http://www.computerguysinc.net/) ?

Third, a question about wine?  I've never worked with Wine much (other than running ies4linux), but I recall that it's possible to configure Wine to work with the DLL's on an existing Windows partition.  It's my understanding that apps in general work better with this configuration.
