I'm considering buying a digital storm system, but am wondering how difficult it would be to change it into a dual boot ubuntu linux/windows 7 system. Is there anything special about a digital system that might make this difficult? I'm pretty comfortable with things like create partitions, reformatting hard drives, and installing new operating systems, but this UEFI thing is starting to make me think twice.........

Been a while since I messed around with linux but I would check with ubuntu community for that, that would be the best source of info on that IMHO.

There is nothing about a Digital Storm system that would make this difficult, I have Linux on this machine as a dual-boot as well. Windows will come pre-installed, and as you likely know installing Windows first makes the process a lot easier anyways, since Linux is much more friendly about being installed 2nd.
