This may be of interest to some... It's a Linux-based OS that launches VERY
quickly. It installs from Windows and creates a dual-boot. It claims to work
very well on older hardware.

I'm about to download and try it... here's what it says on the download
site:

Download and install the Presto software for free from one of the sites
below and try it for *seven days*.

After the trial period, Presto continues to work, but only for ten minutes
at a time.
A license costs $20.
