TWIMC, I have an Ultra-1 machine at home and use it for my work. If you can help with the "dual-boot" issue I can offer some local storage, cpu cycles, and a helping hand as well. I am connected to the internet with a dynamic IP only, but am connected most of the time. Please let me know how I can contribute.
