I had no problems running warzone on Win7, but I had other types of problems, like compatibility problems with software and periphericals, If your hardware isn't recent, (It has more than 4 years) I don't recommend you using 7.
hmmm, ok. i'll make a note of that. thank you. :)

Hope this helps.

- Nameless.
I'm changing my vote to Arch Linux / XP because the 2009 version of PCLinuxOS is no longer supported (due to a whole new toolchain and Pclos 2010 is not my cup-o-tea [too many software and hardware related bugs]).

Sweet! I was hoping I wouldn't be the only Arch user on these here forums. The dual booting is there because there are just some programs/utilities that I'll never trust to open-source communities / developers. (i.e.; financial programs and "graphic design" programs [aka Adobe's Creative Suites]).

Arch Linux is my favorite and permanent install, but I do enjoy distro-hopping to stay current with changes.

Fedora, Linux Mint, Ubuntu, Mandriva, Debian are some of the most popular ones that I use as a dual boot with Arch Linux. I do play WZ2100 on Arch though :)

Same here (on both counts) but I distro-hop through the safety of VirtualBox haha.

I was searching around for instructions of complete installation of Linux Mint on USB flash drive (not Live USB). And i found nothing useful. :x

ArchWiki has amazing documentation, I imagined Linux Mint's would be better, as they are more popular, what a disappointment.

Installing Arch Linux on a USB key
