That's even less of an excuse.

Yes. It should create a boot option for Ubuntu, which you should select.
Note that Wubi (the Windows installer that I linked you to) is a bit slower than a full Ubuntu installation (since it's basically using a giant file on your hard drive as if it were a hard drive partition); if, however, you end up liking it, you can rather easily create a bootable USB stick or DVD.

No problem.
Oh, and when you're done with that, you'll want to install Wine, which lets you run Windows programs on Linux (and Mac OS X, but you're not installing Mac OS X, so that's kind of a moot point). Steam works phenomenally with Wine, as do most games (and there seem to be marked improvements on a regular basis). Apparently players have had much success with running ME3 via Wine (though Origin, thanks to its DRM bullshit, will occasionally interfere because it can't actually do anything; I'm sure there are some less-than-legal methods of getting around that...)

My computer installs shit fast.
I installed Civ 3 in 12 min once.

And I used a CD for civ. The old fashioned way, you kids and your Steam and TBP have it good.
You kidding? I still use floppies whenever possible (it's especially hilarious when you're installing a whole operating system from a stack of 30 or so floppies...)
I was a huge fan of Battlefront back in the day. That got me into the Battlefield series, since the gameplay is similar. Battlefront on PS2, Battlefront 2 on PC. Fun times.
I haven't played SW:TOR yet. Knights of the Old Republic was pretty good. Its sequel, however, was an Obvious Beta...

Can we make Yellow a council state, seeing as we promised to a while ago?

I actually think we need to look at the other mates we need to vote before we go to Yellow.
Though it's obvious he's coming in.
Edit: Fuck it, I'm just going to add him as a Council State.

YAY! I love it when "it" is fucked. And when I'm made a Council State.Grand Britannia wrote:
