I've actually done that for awhile! The problem is, when push came to shove, I just chose Windows every time instead of Linux. I only found myself logging into Linux when I was in the mood for a challenge. Unfortunately, that was a fraction of the time compared to the time I needed to spend working on schoolwork or playing games. Ultimately, I just wipe the partition when I need the extra space every time.
It's not that I don't want to use Linux. I think it's really fun to try all the various flavors, tinker with new programs, and the like. I see myself as one of the best scenario types of possible future Desktop Linux user. Opensource is a huge deal to me, I don't have a lot of expendable income, I am really into technology, and I love exploring new and fresh operating systems and programs. The interest is definitely there - I just can't figure out a way to practically use it. At least for me and my needs, everything Linux can do; Windows can do faster and more reliably.
