I keep losing my wireless Internet connection. However when I unplug the router and plug it back in, the connection returns. It is about 5 years old, is it time for a new one do you think? We use 2x laptops on it but only perhaps 2 hours a day. Also I wonder what is the best sort to purchase?

Hi. I'm thinking of installing Xandros desktop 4 (got a free DVD with a magazine) and trying it in a dual boot with Windows XP. I have about 50% of my hard disc free. Will Xandros take up the free space? Will I then have no room to work in Windows? Can I uninstall it if I don't like it?

Thanks in advance.
