Hendrik, both boxes came to the club installed with Window$, and I have
to keep them that way (partially) until the club members clearly show
they want to learn something else than that. And the boxes' features are
insufficient for a triple-boot endeavours. Important is also to show the
audience that they always can reboot into their 'favourite' environment.
