Reporting from my new installation with 2 HDs, and Linux Mint 17.2 Base installation and settings completed, now the data migration and finetuning and familiarization comes next, also the re-organization of those simulators. Everything runs fine and solid . I also noticed that I have a slightly faster data transmission rate from internet cable, I mean the net speed by which the stuff drips into my computer before I used to have 10-11 KB/sec, now it is 13-14. In parts that may be to currently no firewall and AntiVir in use.

Since I have both Windows and Linux on one system, I think it is a good idea to have some kind of security to safeguard against Linux hosting some nasties that may not damage itself, but Windows (which is the big problem with Linux, itself it seems to be quite immune, but it spreads a lot of anti-Windows stuff via servers, and windows and Linux data on one rig also is a problem (some say that this even is what speaks against using something like Wine). - Any ideas, Robbins?

As a short thanks for your feedback the past days, just this few minutes of beauty, since you seem to be interested in astronomy, too. You probably heard of it already, but this is one of the videos where it really shines in all its glory:
