Hard drive prep

Got all my data backed up and removed unused programs. Then I ran defrag for good measure. Ended up with 10GB free space and 0% fragmentation!

Downloaded GParted http://gparted.sourceforge.net/ and burned the .iso. Rebooted to the CD and deallocated 8GB for the linux partition.

I'll have about 20GB for windows and 8GB for linux. When the wireless is working and everyday stuff all works in linux, I'll wipe Windows and reallocate the space for linux.
