    A lot of people seem to be learning C# right about now, so that might be beneficial. If you go with C#, C++ or C, mono-develop is a great IDE.

    Instead of installing grub on the flash drive, I would install it on the internal hard drive. From there, I would make Windows the default, but make a menu entry for the flash drive.

    to change your nickname.
