Ira Sponsible's Journal: Is it finally time to wipe that Windows partition?

I've been running Ubuntu on this laptop for over two years now, maintaining a dual-boot with Windows Vista the entire time. (Vista came preinstalled on this PC.) After the first few weeks of using Ubuntu, it became my preferred OS/desktop environment (No small credit due to the utter sucktacularness of Vista in comparison to... just about anything else, ever.) I've maintained this HD hogging partition for these two years for only one reason - failure to be able to use Photoshop or iTunes in Ubuntu. I far prefer GIMP to Photoshop, because I feel GIMP has a better interface (especially when using multiple desktops, see my previous comments on this issue for more info, if you care), but for an occasional mask or channels effect that GIMP can't handle I have to switch over to Vista + Photoshop to get the work done. iTunes is barely functional, its interface apparently designed by halucinating blind monkeys on crack, but since I have an iPod touch (it was a gift) and an iPod Nano (gift), I don't have any other choice but to use this insane piece of crap to put music on them. Yes I know about WINE and iPod syncing utilities for Linux, but they're not working for me so don't mention it. The issue at hand is, I haven't had a need to use Photoshop in about a year and a half, and I've given up trying to add new songs to either of the iPods. iTunes wants to wipe them and replace all their content with whatever happens to be in my music folder right now which doesn't match with what's on the devices. I moved some shit around on my HD for space, so excuse the shit out of me if I don't want iTunes to erase my iPods for no good reason. (I love my cheap COBY mp3-player - it acts like a USB drive when I plug it into my computer and doesn't care what software I use to throw files onto it. The family loves the iPods, I don't know why.) That's why I haven't even bothered with iTunes for about a year. So, at last, my question is, except for the laborious task of updating Vista every month or so on the very slim chance that I *might* need or want to use it for these two programs (don't mention games. I don't do PC games), I haven't used Windows on this PC for so long, is it finally time to just give up on it and reclaim that 70GB of valuable hard drive space that's basically useless, and wipe it?
