Windows however much you do not like it
is by far the best public user friendly OS out there.

Then you might be interested in this software:
Ubuntu Linux is free & friendly. (Much friendlier than Fedora.)
<http://www.ubuntu.net/>
WINE is free, open source, & will let you run many Windows programs under Linux: <http://www.winehq.org/>
FreeBASIC is free, open-source BASIC compiler, & runs under Linux, Windows & DOS. <http://www.freebasic.net/>
FreeDOS is a free clone of MSDOS.
<http://www.freedos.org/>
I use both DOS and Windows.
Hide One partition and show the other.
Thats how I boot from one to the other.
No special boot loaders or anything.
Just patition magic 8 to swap partitions
like DOS622 and Win98SE/or Win XP.
GRUB (also free) will let you boot multiple OSes on the same box.
Hope you find this useful.
