New iPod Nano

Diggs Kevin Rose’s new rumor about the iPod Nano:

- Revamp of entire iPod line.
- Small cosmetic changes to Touch, Nano to see significant redesign (see pic below).
- iPods to see fairly large price drops to distance itself from the $199 iPhone.
- iPod touch 2.1 software, iPhone to get update very soon after.
- iTunes 8.0 (“it’s a big update w/new features”).
- All of this coming in the next 2-3 weeks.

Vista and Linux

Well how do you makes these two Operating Systems operate on the same machine, well it is a little tricky and you need at least 2 HDD. This shouldn’t be too difficult.

1. Make sure BIOS can change the boot sequence of drives (if not this trick will not work)

2. Now all you need to do is install Vista on your 1st HDD

3. Reboot and change the BIOS setting to boot to the 2nd HDD

4. Install Linux

Over and done with and now that you have Linux on its separate HDD you can install multiple other Linux distros on that drive since you have Grub or whichever boot loader you have chosen to install. This way Windows has its own HDD it is happy and if you can just change BIOS setting depending on which OS you would like to boot into.

I would like to give a thank you out to John for the inspiration.
