Ah, glad I could help.

My laptop triple boots Ubuntu, XP, and Vista; Cheap desktop is Ubuntu; Awesome desktop is Vista.

You ought to set up a dual boot and go to Vista when you game and Ubuntu (or other Linux flavor of your choice) for web/productivity. Even a virtual machine would work if you didn't want to reboot between systems. You can also use Wine to run Windows applications through Linux. I haven't personally used it, but I've read good things.
